Rivers Cuomo
The Unofficials
Your soul is holding out
You don't care what you're 'bout
Been hurt too many times
Your heart is checking out
We like to ride on our bicycles up to the very top
Then it's back to the bottom 'cause, baby, this train ain't ever gonna stop
They tell us exactly the things that we should and we shouldn't do
'Cause we don't have any idea what we're supposed to do
The screws keep on turning, we don't know who we're supposed to blame
We're watching the boat spin around 'til it goes right down the drain
We're the unofficials, baby
We're the unofficials, baby
And nobody knows what to do, where to go, what to say
Your soul is holding out
You don't care what you're 'bout
Been hurt too many times
Your heart is checking out
I'm a lonely man and I can see that you are a lonely girl
They say opposites will attract, but I am a lot like you
Like father, like son, like mother, like daughter, it passes on
We need someone strong to advise us so we can keep keepin' on
I've just been makin' a fool of myself for way too long
Stop tellin' me that I'm right when you're thinking that I am wrong
We're the unofficials, baby
We're the unofficials, baby
And nobody knows what to do, where to go, what to say
Your soul is holding out
You don't care what you're 'bout
Been hurt too many times
Your heart is checking out
