Lyrics

You need a job but it won't come.
You vacuum up your best friend's floor
for you to sleep on.
You try to wake and get to sleep on time.
Everyone you know just tells you
"Keep on trying!"
Oh my I'm tantalized by the Mercedes faces
And their suntanned thighs.
I guess I'll be rolling on inside
A car without a wheel to steer me by.
I hope I said enough.
Is it enough? I kind of like it as it happens.
My life's collapsing.

You could have a halo
Spinning round your head
Anytime you want to.
You always have an angle
Change my point of view
If you get the chance to
You'll be flying solo
Out there in your wide, wide, wide, wide-world.

So I left because you made me cry
I drove 11 hours and the rest I can't believe I
Wasted my best cooking on you.
I've got a new dish and a city too.
It's alright-it's really more than fine.
I'm not really bitter, I'm just on my own
And for the first time it's enough
It's enough, I kind of like it as it happens.
Life as it happens.

You could have a halo
Spinning round your head
I think you're the devil.
You always have an angle
Change my point of view
One I've gotten used to.
Now you're flying solo
Out there in your wide, wide, wide, wide-world.
