Hard To Explain

Was an honest man

Asked me for the phone

Tried to take control

Oh, I don't see it that way

I don't see it that way

We shared some ideas

All obsessed with fame

Says we're all the same

Oh, I don't see it that way

I don't see it that way

Raised in Carolina

I'm not like that

Tryin' to remind her

When we go back

I missed the last bus, I'll take the next train

I try, but you see it's hard to explain

I said the right things but act the wrong way

I like it right here but I cannot stay

I watched the TV, forget what I'm told

Well I am too young and they are too old

The joke is on you, this place is a zoo

You're right, it's true

He said he can't decide

I shake my head to say

Everything's just great

Oh, I just can't remember

I just can't remember

Raised in Carolina

I'm not like that

Trying to remind her

When we go back

I say the right things but act the wrong way

I like it right here but I cannot stay

I watched the TV, forget what I'm told

I am too young and they are too old

I'll make it you see I'm nervous, so please

Pretend to be nice so I can be mean

I missed the last bus, I'll take the next train

I try, but you see It's hard to explain
