Ive never felt equipped to fit the trend I feel that dressing up is all pretend But standing here I look around and all I seem to see Are people that worship formality. And Ive never been at ease
Its not just the thanks and please Its the rules that breed success
Cause they`re dressed to just impress.
Hemmed in hopes and claustrophobic years
No-one stops to see if some dust clears!
Life goes too fast for me…
Slow down
I want life to last with me…
Slow down…
Oh please slow down.
My wife has had enough of no return
She says the kids are no way my concern
I guess there never are no rats aboard a sinking ship
That girl across the bar has cracked my whip!
Because shes staring at me But I dont want to be free
Why is it always the same
I guess I`ve blew it again.
Hemmed in hopes…etc.
I dont need lectures – just an overdraft Back out on the street cause he simply laughed I swear its some conspiracy cause I cant get no peace I cant pick the phone up and call the police.
No matter which way I turn
Its never no-ones concern
Who sees my little finger
Reach and squeeze my life`s trigger!
Hemmed in hopes…etc.
I dont even stand a chance Because Im flying with no hands!
I`m allowed to play the game
But the rules never stay the same!
