Acting My Age - Graduate

i always walk on the other side of the street

and i never shake hands with the people i meet

and they always dispute the things i know

guess i’d like to tell them where to go

guess i wish they’d stop searching me

there’s no god, there’s no church in me

there’s an evil that lurks in me

can’t you see

i always comb my hair the other way

and i’m always obscure in the things i say

there’s a pile of opinions in my brain

they’re so different but they sound the same

paranoia (?) it’s meant to be

i’m not a toy and it’s plain to see

paranoia is what i mean

can’t you see

well you always say it’s so unusual

you always say it’s strange

why i’m always acting like a fool

you know i’m never ever acting my age

acting my age

i don’t drink, don’t smoke, don’t shave

but i’m told i’m going through a phase

and i’m told i’m thinking like a kid

but i see the world for what it is

if you want it then you’ll receive

all the hatred that’s locked in me

don’t forget that you hold the key

wait and see

well you always say it’s so unusual

you always say it’s strange

why i’m always acting like a fool

you know i’m never ever acting my age

acting my age

i always walk on the other side of the street

and i never shake hands with the people i meet

and they always dispute the things i know

guess i’d like to tell them where to go

guess i wish they’d stop searching me

there’s no god, there’s no church in me

there’s an evil that lurks in me

can’t you see?

well you always say it’s so unusual

you always say it’s strange

why i’m always acting like a fool

you know i’m never ever acting my age

you always say it’s so unusual

you always say it’s strange

why i’m always acting like a fool

you know i’m never ever acting my age

i’m never ever acting my age

i’m never, never, never acting my age
