"Adam Ant"
I only write these days in haste
Do you know how much time that wastes?
Everyone thinks I’m full of hate
Anger’s an emotion I love to illustrate
Can’t help it ‘cause I don’t want to
Can’t ‘cause I won’t, and it bothers you
What can I say other than what I can’t
I’m open, it’s just that y’all are adamant
Writing every day helps me to flourish
Finishing this song, I’ll feel so nourished
But those listening to me right now
Wonder how I even get around
Crazy kids with your music
Crazy kids, here’s advice, use it
“You think I care what you like?
This is how you ‘live your life’?”
Told everything plain and simple
No room to be unpredictable
Maybe I’m making this all up
And I’m living a dream I can’t wake from
“And you were there, and you, too”
