The Strokes - Hard to Explain lyrics
[The Strokes - Hard to Explain lyrics]
Was an honest man asked me for the phone
Tried to take control
Oh, I don't see it that way
I don't see it that way
We shared some ideas all obsessed with fame
Says we're all the same
Oh, I don't see it that way
I don't see it that way
Raised in Carolina i'm not like that
Tryin' to remind her when we go back
I missed the last bus
I'll take the next train
I'll try, but you see, it's hard to explain
I say the right thing, but act the wrong way
I like it right here, but I cannot stay
I watch the TV, forget what I'm told
Well, I am too young and they are too old
The joke is on you, this place is a zoo
You're right, it's true
He says he can't decide
I shake my head to say
"Everything's just great"
Oh, I just can't remember
I just can't remember
Raised in Carolina
She says, "I'm not like that"
Tryin' to remind her when we go back
I say the right thing, but act the wrong way
I like it right here, but I cannot stay
I watch the TV, forget what I'm told
Well, I am too young and they are too old
Oh, man, can't you see
I'm nervous, so please
Pretend to be nice so I can be mean
I missed the last bus
We'll take the next train
I'll try, but you see, it's hard to explain
Tried to take control
Oh, I don't see it that way
I don't see it that way
We shared some ideas all obsessed with fame
Says we're all the same
Oh, I don't see it that way
I don't see it that way
Raised in Carolina i'm not like that
Tryin' to remind her when we go back
I missed the last bus
I'll take the next train
I'll try, but you see, it's hard to explain
I say the right thing, but act the wrong way
I like it right here, but I cannot stay
I watch the TV, forget what I'm told
Well, I am too young and they are too old
The joke is on you, this place is a zoo
You're right, it's true
He says he can't decide
I shake my head to say
"Everything's just great"
Oh, I just can't remember
I just can't remember
Raised in Carolina
She says, "I'm not like that"
Tryin' to remind her when we go back
I say the right thing, but act the wrong way
I like it right here, but I cannot stay
I watch the TV, forget what I'm told
Well, I am too young and they are too old
Oh, man, can't you see
I'm nervous, so please
Pretend to be nice so I can be mean
I missed the last bus
We'll take the next train
I'll try, but you see, it's hard to explain
