I Don`t Know Lyrics

I Don`t Know lyrics

Neil O'Connor 



It's hard to live in a factory city

Auto metropole of the new kingdom come

Where you can look out of the glass, sure

And you can, maybe, glimpse the sun



But imagination spans further than

Fish and chips and beans from a can

My father had last night

And me?



I don't know,

I don't know what I want

But I want it now



I like to dress in rags

and silks and things

I wanna be someone else

With a different name

A different game

a different taste and smell



All my dreams go further than

Alpha centauri

I write myself into every story

Heroes and villains well,

They're my friends





And me?

I don't know,

I don't know what I want

But I want it now





Well the boys around here

act really weired

They just want to get you tied down

They never come to much

they never have the touch

They never want to leave this town

Well I guess I'm lucky

I've known a few exceptions

Who don't get off on expectations

All they need is the here and now





And me?

I don't know,

I don't know what I want

But I want it now
