I can't wait you see me 'round the corner,
Running up into the upswing
Call me, I'm done, when I speak about the truth
The moment come the bottom to the down beat,
It's not easy there when you feel the wear
Patients bring the chair, oh-oh oh-ohEveryday do you notice that we're never free
Why can't you be happy with me?
Everyday we are running, though we're not trapped in the sea
Oh, why can't you be happy with me?
Oh, why can't you be happy with me?Pushing paper, I do everything I'm told,
Yeah I do do it for the money
Understating, every after that I'm taking
I see it comingIt's not easy there when you feel the wear
Patients bring the chair, ooh-oh oooh-ohEveryday do you notice that we're never free
Why can't you be happy with me?
Everyday we are running, though we're not trapped in the sea
Oh, why can't you be happy with me?Everyday do you notice that we're never free
Why can't you be happy with me?
Everyday we are running, though we're not trapped in the sea
Oh, why can't you be happy with me?The messages won't stop,
They just keep pulling at you
Teasing us with the thought that badest something will do
If we could hold the tongue and focus all our time through
We would just rise above the cycle that we're bound toEveryday do you notice that we're never free
Why can't you be happy with me?
Everyday we are running, though we're not trapped in the sea
Oh, why can't you be happy with me?Everyday do you notice that we're never free
Why can't you be happy with me?
Everyday we are running, though we're not trapped in the sea
Oh, why can't you be happy with me?Everyday do you notice that we're never free
Why can't you be happy with me?
Everyday we are running, though we're not trapped in the sea
Oh, why can't you be happy with me?
