lyrics

When I woke up this morning I said, "Woo Hoo!"
And then I ate some cereal, Woo Hoo!
Somebody called and they said, "Woo Hoo!"
I'm gonna pay some bills today, Woo Hoo!

I wanna be excited and fall all around
But I just can't bring myself to lift the crown
One of these days I'm gonna blow this town
I wanna dance to the radio right now

I wanna go outside and feel the sound
I wanna get distracted and mess around
But instead I'll check my e-mail every hour
Stayed glued to the screen for hours and hours and hours and hours

Every day gets wasted away
When did I become such a cliche'?
Is it all for nothing and nothing for all?
Just don't expect the curtain call
Sex, beer, money, find a bride
I don't wanna be too satisfied
Insurance, food, friends, sense of pride
I never wanna get too satisfied

When I turn out the lights in my room
There's a glow that says what I always knew
No matter how it feels, it's still just you
Alone in room pretending to enjoy the view
