I can hardly move
|
And I sure can't groove
|
I can hardly see why I'm so afraid
|
|
The days are long
|
I can't get rid of what's wrong
|
It's plain to see that the problem is in me
|
|
I wish I were a singer
|
A dancer
|
Dancing for your love
|
|
I must seem a little bit odd
|
Do I count as anything special
|
Is there sincerity in anything I say
|
Do I know what anything means?
|
Can I see?
|
|
I listen to the radio
|
Not music, but the talk shows
|
I watch a lot of PBS & BBC
|
I don't want to "Meet the Press"
|
I'm scared of what I see
|
|
The only thing I recognize
|
Is this pain in my side
|
The hunger that I feel
|
Is the only thing
|
The only thing that is real
|
|
I wish I were a singer
|
A dancer
|
Dancing for your love
|
|
Oooh...
|
Ah...
|
|
Doo doo doo...
|
