--INTRO (x2)--
Ohh Ohh
Doo doo doo, I'll be there
Oh drivin' me backwards
Kids like me, gotta be crazy
You must think that I'm lazy
Meet my relations
All of them grinnin' like face packs
Such sweet inspirations
Curl me up, a flag in an icecap
Now I've found a sweetheart
Treats me good, just like an armchair
--SOLO GUITAR (x5)--
I try to think about nothing
Difficult, I'm most temperamental
I gave up my good living
Typical, I'm almost sentimental
Sliding around, make chemical choices
And she responds as expected
To the only sound, hysterical voices
And you're, you're drivin' me backwards
Kids like me have gotta be crazy
Doo doo doo
Doo doo doo, I'll be there
Ayayayay
Doo doo doo, I'll be there
Ayayayay
Dadadadada
