歌詞
[Verse 1]
I feel like I want to break out of the house
My heart is a-pumpin'
I got sand in my mouth
I feel like I'm headin' up to a cardiac arrest
I wanna scream in the night
I wanna manifest
I've got that wide awake
Give and take
Five o'clock in the mornin' feelin'
I've got the hots for the sluts in the well thumbed pages of a magazine
I wanna drive
Wanna fly like I do in the dreams I've never really been in
I wanna hump
Wanna jump
Wanna heat up and cool down in a dream machine
[Verse 2]
(I'm dreaming) from the waist on down
(I'm dreaming) but I feel tired and bound
(I'm dreaming) of a day that a cold shower helps my health
(I'm dreaming)
Dreaming of the day I can control myself
Day I can control myself, yeah
[Verse 3]
Sound like a priest and then I'm shootin' dice
I'm burnin' tires with some guys whose hair is turnin' white
I know the girls that I pass, they just ain't impressed
I'm too old to give up, but too young to rest
I've got that numb-to-a-thumb over-dubbed
Feelin' social when the world is sleepin'
The plot starts to thicken then I sicken
And I feel like I'm cemented down
I'm so juiced that the whorey lady's sad, sad story
Has me quietly weepin'
But here comes the mornin'
Here comes the yawnin' demented clown
[Verse 4]
(I'm dreaming) but I know it's all hot air
(I'm dreaming) I'll get back to that rockin' chair
(I'm dreaming) of the day I can share the wealth
(I'm dreaming)
Dreaming of the day I can control myself
Day I can control myself
[Verse 5]
Hey, hey
Day I can control myself
Woo
