John Reuben - Trying Too Hard lyrics

Oh, oh, mm
Oh, buddy, the freaks come out at night
'Til they can no longer afford to socialize

Ha!
I left the party early what's wrong with me?
I'm at the diner down the corner
On my fifth cup of coffee
Pen in hand, trying to recreate that feeling
Staring at the ceiling
Make them think that you're thinking
Cigarettes and aspirin thoughts on a napkin
Wadded up in the trash can asking

Oh, what happened to your imagination?
Let's dance this night away
Every one of us is born a genius
Until we got too cool to play

I said you're trying too hard
You must not know who you are
It's not natural you look uncomfortable
You're trying too hard
You must not know who you are
It's not natural relax a little

One for the drinks, two for the tip
Three for rent the rest is for the government
Ha!

Work all day, spend it in the evening
Overpriced drinks, room full of needy friends
Are we having a good time?
Absolutely who wouldn't be?
You can introduce me to the
Moody cuties and dudes who
Act like I'm 'sposed to know
Who they should be
Well, I don't, nor do I care
Stop trying so hard and put both
Hands up in the air

You're trying too hard
You must not know who you are
It's not natural you look uncomfortable
You're trying too hard
You must not know who you are
It's not natural relax a little

If the kids all leave
We'll shut the place down
But until then, let's go another round
I said, until then let's go another round
I said, until then let's go another ahem
Yeah who are these kids
Causing disorderly conduct?
Telemarketers and busboys trying to
Tear the club up
Gettin' rowdy rowdy hey man
I ain't gonna front
If the DJ plays my record
That's exactly what I want

Oh, what happened to your imagination?
Let's dance this night away
Every one of us is born a genius
Until we got too cool to play

I said you're trying too hard
You must not know who you are
It's not natural you look uncomfortable
You're trying too hard
You must not know who you are
It's not natural relax a little
You're trying too hard
You must not know who you are
It's not natural you look uncomfortable
You're trying too hard
You must not know who you are
It's not natural relax a little

Oh, buddy, the freaks come out at night
'Til they can no longer afford to socialize
Yeah, one for the beverages, two for the tip
Three for rent the rest is for the government
Are we having a good time?
Hey, waitress, I did not order this
