Hard to Explain

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 wayWe 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 wayRaised in Carolina
I'm not like that
Tryin' to remind her
When we go backI 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 stayI'm watching 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 trueHe said, he can't decide
I shake my head to say
Every thing's just great
Oh, I just can't remember
I just can't rememberRaised in Carolina
I'm not like that
Trying to remind her
When we go backI say the right thing
But act the wrong way

But I cannot stay

And they are too oldOh, man cant you see
I'm ever so pleased
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
