about

lyrics

When all is said and done
We're not the only ones
Who look at life this way
That's what the old folks say
But every time I'd see them
Makes me wish I had a gun
If I thought that I was crazy
Well I guess I'd have more fun
(Guess I'd have more fun)

Ooh yeah, yeah, yeah

The Catcher In The Rye again
Won't let you get away from him
(It's just) Another day like today

You decide
Cause I don't have to
And then they'll find
And I won't ask you
At anytime
Or long hereafter
If the cold outside's
As I'm imagining
It to be
Oh no

Na na na na na na na na,
Na na na na na na na

Ooh yeah, yeah, yeah

The Catcher In The Rye again
Won't let you get away from him
(It's just) Another day like today

When all is said and done
We're not the only ones
Who look at life this way
That's what the young folks say
As if they'd ever change
As that were mine to say
But every time I'd see them
Makes me wish I had a gun
If I thought that I was crazy
Well, I guess I'd have more fun
'Cause what used to be's not there for me
And ought to for someone that belonged
(That belonged) Insane
Like I do

Na na na na na na na na,
Na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na na,
Na na na na na na na

On an ordinary day
Not in an ordinary way
All at once, the song I heard
No longer would it play
For anybody
Or anyone
That needed comfort from somebody
Needed comfort from someone
Who cared
To be
Not like you
And unlike me
And then the voices went away from me
Somebody set the wheels in motion
That haunt our memories
You were the instrument
You were the one
How a body
Took a body
You gave that boy a gun
Took our innocence
Beyond our stares
Sometimes, the only thing we counted on
When no one else was there
