Lyrics:
Well everybody's leaving
from this town and from me
They've got the burning flame
they sure achieve their aim,
You know that's tough for me to see
Oh how I wish that I could
do the same as them and go,
Just pack my bags and goodbye
Get out fast or fade away real slow
Cause' what you see is what you get right here,
When change is nowhere near
What you see is what you get from me
In this duckpond leave me here
Pretend my life is perfect
Like the faces on TV
Yeah, that's the only way
to face another day
try to deny the misery
But those are the ways of looney's
and like a clown yeah do I act
No matter where I could be
or would like to go
I'm stuck and that's a fact
Cause' what you see is what you get right here,
When change is nowhere near
What you see is what you get from me
In this duckpond leave me here
I'm too weak I'm down on my knees
too feeble for something new
Feels like there's nothing I can do
Keep on laughing 'bout me
keep on doing your own
But someday I will be that one
Be that one,
yeah someday I will be that one
