I Don`t Know What I Want — текст песни (Eric Carmen)

(Eric Carmen)

My old man says success is the measure
Maybe so but I don`t need the pressure
Not right now cause I got enough

Teachers tell me I don`t lack the brains
Ask if I`m under some kind of strain
Well that`s too much and I really can`t take it

They all say that I`m not getting younger
And I`d better make up my mind
Man, you`d think I was committin` some kinda crime

`Cause I don`t know what I want
I don`t know what I want
I don`t know what I want
But I want it now

When I talk they just don`t wanna listen
The they push me to make some decisions
I can`t wait and they wonder why

Everyone says I`ve got no direction
They want me sent to a house of correction
That`s too much when I really can`t take it

When I try to relieve my frustration
Seems like nothing I can do is right
My mind is aching and I`m sick of being so uptight

`Cause I don`t know what I want
I don`t know what I want
I don`t know what I want
But I want it now

All my life they complained that I`m just a dreamer
But I can`t make a move when they wound my pride
When they say it must stop they push and pull me
I don`t know what to do
And it`s like I`m just talking through a cell door
Some one give me a clue

`Cause I don`t know what I want
I don`t know what I want
I don`t know what I want
But I want it now
I want it now
Oh, give it to me
Oh, yeah
