My Private Nation

Why you gotta treat me like Im a low down dirty

Climbin up on thirty
Dress like a kid to make me feel young punk

And talk junk
You musta fell out of your bunk
And smacked your head

Or your face or somethin

I dont need nobody flyin in my jet stream

Take the bus
Go on and get yourself your own dream

This is my own life keepin me down

Where I wanna be in my private nation

Im alone all thinkin lifes a phone call
Here for just a while when in my private nation

You can ride or you can go

Why you gonna step on shoes
When you dont know whose been in em
Have you ever been more than a bump
On a rock that likes to roll

In the middle of a soup bowl in the sky
Use your eyes

Its all you got till you die

I dont need nobody flyin in my jet stream

Take the bus
Go on and get yourself your own dream

This is my own life keepin me down

Where I wanna be in my private nation

Im alone all thinkin lifes a phone call
Here for just a while when in my private nation

You can ride on, it aint free

Leave a light on, so you can see

How to get back when you go

How to get, how to give
How to make ends meet
How to lose, how to win
How to stay on the seat
How to use momentum to keep the two wheels straight

How to wait after it feels like you waited so longI don't need nobody
Flyin' in my jet stream

Take the bus, go on and
Get yourself your own dream

Cause this is my own life keepin' me down

Where I wanna be in my private nation

I'm alone all thinkin' life's a phone call
Here for just a while when in my private nation, yeah

This is my own life keepin' me down

Where I wanna be in my private nation

I'm alone all thinkin' life's a phone call
Here for just a while when in my private nation

You can ride on, it ain't free

Leave a light on, so you can see

How to get back
