at six a.m. this morning, oh the man knocked at my door
i screamed in his ear, i'm not the guy you're looking for
but got taken, i got taken just the same
when it comes to getting sleep at night
oh i just can't seem to win
i went down to the zoo where i thought i might hide
there i met a friendly grizzly bear, who took me for a ride
and i got mangled, oh i got pushed all out of shape
when it comes to being sociable
oh i just can't seem to win
while climbing up mt. everest to get away from all the noise
i slipped on a banana peel and almost got destroyed
and i was worried all the way down to the ground
when it comes to holding safety nets
nobody seems to be around
when i put myself together i found that it was best
if i no longer tried to be just like all the rest
because i'm twisted, yeah but that's the bag i'm in
when it comes to being normal
oh i just can't seem to win
