The Who - I Don't Even Know Myself lyrics
[The Who - I Don't Even Know Myself lyrics]
There's nothing in the way I walk that
Could tell you where I'm going
There's nothing in the words I speak that
Can betray anything I'm knowing
Don't think about the way I dress
You can fit me on a labeled shelf
Don't pretend that you know me cause I
Don't even know myself
Ooh I don't know myself
I don't mind if you try once in a while
I don't mind if I cry once in a while
The doors aren't shut as tight
As they might seem
I'm just trying to fight my
Way out of this dream
Don't listen to the words I say
Weighing up if I'm enlightened
Don't shiver as you pass me by
Cause mister I'm the one who's frightened
The police just came and left
They wanted me and no one else
Don't pretend that you know me cause
I don't even know myself
I said I don't know myself
I don't mind if you try once in a while
I don't mind if I cry once in a while
The doors aren't shut as tight
As they might seem
I'm just trying to fight my
Way out of this dream
Do you remember me, I don't remember you
Do you still love me, you know I think you do
I have been gone
And some prison warden knows my scream
I'm just trying to fight my
Way out of this dream
There's only five who know my real name
And my mother don't believe they know it
What she called me is the way I'm staying
And no one'll ever know it
Come on all of you big boys
Come on all of you elves
Don't pretend that you know me cause
I don't even know myself
I said I don't know myself
I don't mind if you try once in a while
And I don't mind if I cry once in a while
Could tell you where I'm going
There's nothing in the words I speak that
Can betray anything I'm knowing
Don't think about the way I dress
You can fit me on a labeled shelf
Don't pretend that you know me cause I
Don't even know myself
Ooh I don't know myself
I don't mind if you try once in a while
I don't mind if I cry once in a while
The doors aren't shut as tight
As they might seem
I'm just trying to fight my
Way out of this dream
Don't listen to the words I say
Weighing up if I'm enlightened
Don't shiver as you pass me by
Cause mister I'm the one who's frightened
The police just came and left
They wanted me and no one else
Don't pretend that you know me cause
I don't even know myself
I said I don't know myself
I don't mind if you try once in a while
I don't mind if I cry once in a while
The doors aren't shut as tight
As they might seem
I'm just trying to fight my
Way out of this dream
Do you remember me, I don't remember you
Do you still love me, you know I think you do
I have been gone
And some prison warden knows my scream
I'm just trying to fight my
Way out of this dream
There's only five who know my real name
And my mother don't believe they know it
What she called me is the way I'm staying
And no one'll ever know it
Come on all of you big boys
Come on all of you elves
Don't pretend that you know me cause
I don't even know myself
I said I don't know myself
I don't mind if you try once in a while
And I don't mind if I cry once in a while
