My tape recorder,
it must be lyin`
`cause this I just can`t believe.
I hear a voice that`s cryin`,
that`s not me.
The wheel goes round.
I hear a sound.
It`s comin` out all wrong.
And I swear to you I never wrote that song.
I been livin` in my own shell so long:
the only place I ever feel at home.
And oh, that music,
I hate those lyrics.
It stayed inside me so long.
And I swear to you I never wrote that song.
But pardon me,
I`m not lookin` for sympathy,
Not sympathy.
I`m just thinking out loud.
the melody,
it goes nowhere pointlessly.
Silence please.
I been livin` in my own shell so long:
the only place I ever feel at home.
And oh, that music,
I hate those lyrics.
It stayed inside me so long.
And I swear to you I never.
