And it didn't work out
You were tryin' to be charming
And it didn't come off
You were tryin' to be clever
A big waste of time
You were tryin' to get rough
But you're waiting in line
You can't make it with the down boys
They don't hear a word you say
You can't make it with the down boys
Uh just stay out of their way
You were trying to be sharp
But they couldn't wait
You were trying to be eternal
But uh that didn't rate
You were tryin' to be smooth
You're rough on the edges
You were tryin' to be, hysterical
And I still ain't laughin'
You can't make it with the down boys
Uh they don't hear a word you say
You can't make it with the down boys
Just stay out of their way
You were tryin' to be in
But they left you out [yelp?]
You were tryin' to be in
Two different worlds
You were tryin' to be in
Oscillation in shame
You were tryin' to be in
But you're lost in the game
You can't make it with the down boys
They don't hear a word you say
You can't make it with the down boys
Uh just stay out of their way
Stay out of their way
Out of their way
You can't make it with the down boys
Uh they don't hear a word you say
You can't make it with the down boys
Just stay out of their way
You were tryin' to be cute And it didn't work out You were tryin' to be charming And it didn't come off You were tryin' to be clever A big waste of time You were tryin' to get rough But you're waiting in line You can't make it with the down boys They don't hear a word you say You can't make it with the down boys Uh just stay out of their way You were trying to be sharp But they couldn't wait You were trying to be eternal But uh that didn't rate You were tryin' to be smooth You're rough on the edges You were tryin' to be, hysterical And I still ain't laughin' You can't make it with the down boys Uh they don't hear a word you say You can't make it with the down boys Just stay out of their way You were tryin' to be in But they left you out [yelp?] You were tryin' to be in Two different worlds You were tryin' to be in Oscillation in shame You were tryin' to be in But you're lost in the game You can't make it with the down boys They don't hear a word you say You can't make it with the down boys Uh just stay out of their way Stay out of their way Out of their way You can't make it with the down boys Uh they don't hear a word you say You can't make it with the down boys Just stay out of their way Explain Request ×
