7. STOP WANTING

LYRICS

I may sound whiny cause I am

And I feel tiny as a clam

Mama said the world’s my oyster

In the midst of all the noise

Her words have never seemed so distant

This is not where I thought I’d be by now

I want to be famous

I want to live off the grid

I want to travel the world

I want a house full of kids

I want to become vegan

I want to take up hunting

I want I want I want I want

I want to stop wanting

Ba-da-da-da

Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da

Da-da-da-da-da-da

Ba-da-da-da

Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da

Da-da-da-da-da-da

Everyone around me seems to know

We’re on some hidden camera show

Are you happy clocking in?

Was that parking space a win?

Lucky is the man who knows his song

Before he even starts singing

I want to be humble

I want to make lots of money

I want to be taken seriously

I want to be funny

I want to just do nothing

And be known for something

I want I want I want I want

I want to stop wanting

Do I disappoint you?

Do I make you proud?

If you had the choice

Would you still want me around?

See, I’m still not sure what life is all about

If we give up trying does it make a sound?

Am I almost there or did I pass my prime?

In this endeavor will there ever be a finish line?

How am I still asking after all this time?

In this endeavor will there ever be a finish line?

Do I disappoint you?

Do I make you proud?

If you had the choice would you still want me around?

See, I’m still not sure what living’s all about

If we give up trying, does it make a sound?

Am I almost there or (Ba-da-da-da)

Did I pass my prime? (Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da)

In this endeavor will there ever be a finish line? (Da-da-da-da-da-da)

How am I still asking (Ba-da-da-da)

After all this time? (Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da)

How am I still asking after all this time? (Da-da-da-da-da-da)
