You chase in the rat race |
|
And you always feel so hollow |
|
You marry because it's expected of you |
|
And it only makes you feel more lonely |
|
But still you look down on the teenage dad on, on his estate |
|
He's happy, so leave him alone with his baby and his modest home |
|
He's happy, so leave him alone with his |
|
Jensen Interceptor |
|
It's just a runaround |
|
You defer to the views of the television news |
|
Let someone do your thinking for you |
|
And you still buy a daily newspaper |
|
And you find everything there but the news |
|
And still you look down on the teenage dad on, on his estate |
|
He's happy, so leave him alone with his baby and his modest home |
|
He's happy, so leave him alone with his |
|
Jensen Interceptor |
|
It's just a runaround |
|
You become your parents parent |
|
And you love them but you can't help feeling used |
|
And you hate the teenage dad on his estate |
|
Because he's poor, but he's happier than you |
|
They're all laughing at you |
|
You're a dipper, a slider, cart-horse provider |
|
Nobody cares about you |
|
Just as long as you're out there bringing it in |
|
Despising the grin on the face of the boy |
|
With the methadone, ah, with his methadone |
|
He's happy, so leave him alone, ah with his methadone |
|
He's happy, so leave him alone |
