Lyrics

If it's a temporary lull Why'm I bored right outta my skull? Man, I'm dressin' sharp and feelin' dull Lonely, I guess that's where I'm from If I was from Canada Then I'd best be called lonesome And if it's just a game Then I'll break down just in case Hurry up, (hurry up) we're runnin' in our last race Well, I laughed half the way to Tokyo I dreamt I was Surfer Joe And 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? (so what?) We're bleeding but we ain't cut And I could purge my soul perhaps For the imminent collapse Oh yeah, (oh yeah) I'll tell you what we could do You be me for a while and I'll be you Oh yeah A dream too tired to come true Left a rebel without a clue Won't you tell me what I should do? Oh, if it's just a lull Why'm I bored right outta my skull? Oh yeah, (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, hey!
