When the words that you call your own
Have a very, very foreign tone
And you feel like you're alone
And the message that you didn’t mean
Stops a dirty mind from coming clean
And the right to be obscene
Well, I don’t think I'm getting nowhere
Someone somewhere, understand
Nearly missing all my marbles
This is not a perfect plan
And it won't be very long
Till I'm going, going, gone
And is there really something wrong with me?
And if you hide in the meadow maze
You'll look back on apathetic days
And you feel like mayonnaise
And the faces that you call your friends
Are expecting you to make amends
Well, I guess it all depends
And it won't be very long
(Won't be very long)
Till I'm going, going, gone
(Going, going, gone)
Yeah, it won't be very long
(Won't be very long)
Till I'm going, going, gone
(Going, going, gone)
And is there really something wrong with me now?
Where is all the healthful breathing
I'm not leaving until I know
Waiting for the resolution
I can't seem to let it go
And it won't be very long...
Gee, it's been a dry September
Mr. Member, cry and pout
I don’t mean to change the subject
I just want to shut it out, shut it out
Shut it out, shut it out
And it won't be very long
(Won't be very long)
Till I'm going, going, gone
(Going, going, gone)
Yeah, it won't be very long
(Won't be very long)
Till I'm going, going, gone
And is there really something wrong with me now?
