i keep saying i don't understand
well she knows me: i don't go that way
it might be better in another town
when you're never there and he's never around
if you'd ask me well it's just not right
and i'll know that until the day that i die
and i listen to every word you say
it might be your truth but to me it don't make no sense at all

i don't like this mess i'm in
my life's been made out of trouble since i don't know when
well it's been some time now and i've been on my own
i've had time to think now and it don't make no sense at all

well that's just my luck
any day now it'll all break down

i keep saying i don't understand
well she knows i don't go that way

any day now it'll all break down
yes any day now it'll break me
well come on now, think about it
take a long hard look at it
you see it don't make no sense at all
