Got my head in the clouds
And my feet on another planet
I've been to so many time zones
I can't even understand it
This week I'll be after Marsha
The week after after Janet
The week after after?
I can't even plan it
Man I've worked a hundred jobs
Might work a hundred more
I've walked a thousand miles
Just to wind back up at my door
Accolades underground
You haven't heard of em
I haven't either
There's no word of em
Building from bottom up
Infrastructure haphazard
Last week I bottomed up
I'm doing it ass-backwards
You haven't heard of me?
Go call a friend of yours
They haven't either?
That's what the email's for
See me at the Safeway
Only sale items
Bought college on layaway
I mean at those prices?
I'm on the couch
And I'm looking outside
And I've known that I was special
Long as I've been alive
Living it up
Before I'm giving it in
It's just water in the cup
Don't care too much for the spins
And there's good people around me
Acquaintances to the kin
Man I'm enjoying so much
I can't tell which way to grin
Why don't you come and see me
I'll be sitting under marquee
You tell me congratulations
And I'll have to agree
Take my chance I got no label
I put this out for free
You can call me Jerry Seinfeld
Work as hard as a bee
But every time they say Bohdi
I get better
Good people around me
And they just get better
Free studio time
And an old, cheap sweater
Man, this is the kind of stuff
You write home in a letter
Dear mom
It's your oldest son
I'm doing real well
And school's almost done
The activities here
Are always lots of fun
And every time I go outside
There's always sun
And I've got good friends
And the food's real tasty
Well, not always
But I'm not complaining
And I know just where I'm going
And how to get there
Ooh!
I've only ever dreamt about this air
Living it up
Before I'm giving it in
It's just water in the cup
Don't care too much for the spins
And there's good people around me
Acquaintances to the kin
Man I'm enjoying so much
I can't tell which way to grin
