Listen to the words
Come out of my mouth
I'm leaving this place
And moving down south
This time
It's a new way of life

I haven't got much hope
It's gone beyond a joke

I find I live my life in a daydream
A reverie
A constant stream

Would you like to extend your hand
And help a man who can't understand?
Why everyone is leaving the nest
I'm feeling like an unwelcome guest

Help me find a way to get what I need
I need to be strong and I want to succeed
This time
It's a new way of life

I haven't got much hope
It's gone beyond a joke

I find I live my life on the outside
Looking in
I have my pride

Would you like to extend your hand
And help a man who can't understand?
Why everyone is leaving the nest
I'm feeling like an unwelcome guest

And all my friends have drifted apart
It's time for their excuses to start
Now everyone is flying the nest
I'm feeling like an unwelcome guest
