I've got my mother trying to reach me all the time
And there's nothing I can do
I'd like to travel the world
And find out truth about all kinds of things
There's not a single tree out there that's talking to me
All the nature lovers they're so full of it
What's the matter with all the angry, angry folks?

Give me back my youth, my strength, my happiness
Doctor fill my meals with pills so I can get on with myself

I want to sit, listen to Joni Mitchell and forget about it all
There was a man last week he tried to save me from myself
But there was nothing he could do
I force myself to attend all the family things but I feel lost
Boy, they promise you it's all gonna be fine when you turn 25
But it's not

Give me back my youth, my strength, my happiness
Doctor fill my meals with pills so I can get on with myself

No matter what I do, or where I go
I now that I can only ever count on myself

Give me back my youth, my strength, my happiness
Doctor fill my meals with pills so I can get on with myself
