Jethro Tull - I Don't Want To Be Me Lyrics
Got a grand house out in the country.Marble pillars holding the door.Empty bottles lining the wall from the night before.Got a roller out in the garage.But the wheels are stuck to the floor.Got no reason to go anywhere--no friends call anymore.I dont want to be me, I dont want to be me,I know its hard to see, but I dont want to be me.Had me playing down at the palace.I was declared the belle of the ball.Made the boys take my goods and chattels away--Now Im staring at an empty hall.I dont want to be me.Pardon me--Im on my way.Pardon me but Im going.Taking on the simple life and I feel the grass roots growing.Im going to ride the ragged road--Diamond spurs jangling into the sunset.No circuits running overload--well maybe Im not done yet.Now theres nothing left in the cupboardAnd three bears been eating my soup.My life is one big critical mess if you take a look.And the butlers off in ibiza on expense account gone berserk.But I cant check out of this crazy worldWithout being a jerk--i dont want to be me.
