Lyrics
If it's a temporary lull Why'm I bored right outta my skull? Man, I'm dressin' sharp an' feelin' dull
Lonely, I guess that's where I'm from If I was from canada Then I'd best be called lonesome [Btw, I read in an interview that paul was struck with how some people in Canada used the word "lonesome" instead of "lonely," hence this lyric.]
And if it's just a game Then I'll break down just in case Oh yeah, we're runnin' in our last race
Well, I laughed half the way to tokyo I dreamt I was surfer joe An' what that means, I don't know
A dream too tired to come true Left a rebel without a clue And I'm searching for somethin' to do
And if it's just a game Then we'll hold hands just the same So what, we're bleeding but we ain't cut
And I could purge my soul perhaps For the imminent collapse Oh yeah, I'll tell you what we could do You be me for a while I'll be you
A dream too tired to come true Left a rebel without a clue Won't you tell me what I should do?
And if it's just a lull Why'm I bored right outta my skull? Oh yeah, keep me from feeling so dull
And if it's just a game Then we'll break down just in case Then again, I'll tell you what we could do You be me for a while You be me for a while And I'll be you
