Whatever you want, it isn't me
Other people's ambitions are not my specialty
Sometimes I can see
From here clear to the ocean
And sometimes I'm blind

The 101 is a war zone
It's my main line, my artery it's my way home
It's the only place I have
Left to write my song
One day I want to look out
Through the windshield
And watch you sing along

Whatever you want, it isn't me
Other people's ambitions are not my specialty
Sometimes I can see
From here clear to the ocean
And sometimes I'm blind

I was a father before I was a man
Laugh if you want, you can point if you can
Everything that I do
Well I do with complication
What I sing is true
But I can't face the implication

Whatever you want, it isn't me
Other people's ambitions are not my specialty
And sometimes I can see
From here clear to the ocean
Sometimes I'm blind... yes I am

Wiper blades at the autozone on la cienega
101. 3 Is just blasting in my car
If I'd written that song
I'd be floating in a limousine
Well it's a wet day from here to sherman way
And I got to get my windshield clean

Anyway... whatever you
Want... well it isn't me
Other people's ambitions are not my specialty
Sometimes I can see
From here clear to the ocean
Slim chance I concede
Oh but I'm gonna never give up hoping
Sometimes I can see
From here clear to the ocean
Sometimes I'm blind
