Other People

Other people don’t seem to be sleeping this late

waking up I watch them passing me by while I stay home and contemplate

the different lives that we lead and what does it all mean?

All you people, you act like you’re members of some secret team.

Sometimes I’ll see Bernadette in a place where she goes

we’ll eat with her friends and they’ll chat about issues, and God only knows

that I must plead guilty to not having read that magazine

all you people, you seem to believe in the same little dream

If you could stop and slow down for a while I think you’d see

that there’s no point in running through life at lightning speed

try ‘n stay right here, and spend the day with me

A few times a week I like to take a night out on the town

I’ll go with the flow, though naturally I know I’ll wind up at the Zebra Lounge

Where models and movie stars mingle like busy little bees

beautiful people

fluttering about in the breeze

Ba ba ba ba..

If you could stop…

…just stay right here and spend some time with me

Other people don’t seem to be sleeping this late

waking up, I watch them passing my window, and I contemplate

we’re breathing the same air but I am not living like you

all you people,

I hope you will find all the things you pursue
