Chill out whatcha yelling for
Lay back it’s all been done before
And if you would only let it be
Then you would see
I like you the way you are
When we’re driving in your car
And you’re talking to me one on one
But you’ve become
Somebody else ‘round everyone else
You’re watching your back like you can’t relax
You’re trying to be cool you look like a fool to me
Tell me
Why’d you have to go and make things so complicated
I see the way you’re acting like you’re somebody else - gets me frustrated
Life’s like this you
And you fall and you crawl and you break
And you take what you get and you turn it into honesty
And promise me you’re never gonna find you fake it
You come over unannounced
Dressed up like you’re something else
Where you are and where it’s at you see
You’re making me
Laugh out when you strike your pose
Take off all your preppy clothes
You know you’re not fooling - - this is serious!
- - become
Somebody else ‘round everyone else
You’re watching your back like you can’t relax
You’re trying to be cool you look like a fool to me
Tell me
Why’d you have to go and make things so complicated
I see the way you’re acting like you’re somebody else - gets me frustrated
Life’s like this you
And you fall and you crawl and you break
And you take what you get and you turn it into honesty
And promise me you’re never gonna find you fake it
Chill out whatcha yelling for
Lay back it’s all been done before
And if you would only let it be
Then you would see
Somebody else ‘round everyone else
You’re watching your back like you can’t relax
You’re trying to be cool you look like a fool to me
