Say, can you see'
I can't see anything at all,
Can you lift me up'
That depends how far you all,
Who are you gonna be'
I just want to be left alone,
Strange, don't you agree'
Doesn't matter, 'cause I don't know how to pretend.

Standing on the backbeat never meant a thing to me,
'Cause I've never been cool and I've never been free,
Never try to find the sun using candlelight,
I might not be wrong, but I've never been right.

Can you tell me, what's the word'
I've been waiting here so long,
Can you point me' What's the way'
And I've never been as strong as maybe I used to be...but I've never felt better,
Hey, what's the name of this song'
Every single word has come out wrong.

Say, can you see'
Who are you gonna be'
That depends on what you mean by being,
Up here in the atmosphere will leave a long, long way to fall,
Sure hope it will amuse you all.

Standing on the backbeat never meant a thing to me,
'Cause I've never been cool and I've never been free,
Never try to find the sun using candlelight,
Might not be wrong, but I've never been right.

And I've never been as strong as maybe I used to be...but I've never felt better,
Hey, what's the name of this song'
Every single word has come out wrong,
What's the name of this song'
Every single word has come out wrong,
What's the name of this song'
Every single word has come out wrong,
What's the name of this song'
Every single word has come out wrong.
