Everybody is leaving, from this town and from me They've got the burning flame, they sure achieve their aim You know that's tough for me to see Oh, how I wish I could do the same as them and go Just pack my bags and good-bye Get out fast or fade away real slow
'Cause what you see is what you get right here Where a change is nowhere near What you see is what you get from me In this duckpond leave me be
Pretend my life is perfect, like the faces on TV Yeah, that's the only way to face another day But those are the way of looney's, and like a clown No matter where I could be or would like to go I'm stuck here, that's a fact
I'm too weak, I'm down on my knees Too feeble for something new Feels like there's nothing I can do Keep on laughing 'bout me But someday I will be that one
Yeah someday I will be that one...
