Ferocious loudmouths - Jerry in the middle
Don't ever let your pride play second fiddle
I know you only play the game -
just try not to fit in too well

You care for animals - but do you know your neighbour
You're acting so strong but you despise hard labour
You say you like to call His name
but God never shows his face in hell

What's wrong with being sad
Or going slightly mad ?
At least I'm living life the way I want to

Say no to drugs, kids - but I could use a stiff drink
They'll build that huge mall 'cause they don't care what you think
Progress sounds like a magic spell
but I'm still getting used to where we were

I'm getting desperate - so why not be a VJ ?
Obnoxious leadfoots are trouble on the freeway
Expect no aliens from the sky
until you dig all life on earth

Turn off your VCR
And let me play guitar
Who knows - the sound of my song might make you feel alive

'Why' gets me down
'Why' gets me down
'Why' gets me down
'Why' gets me down
