lyrics
Waking up in my own bed
There's nothing pounding in my head
I remember what I did last night
Had a drink or two with friends
And that’s where the story ends
There’s nothing wild, there’s nothing else to tell
I’m sorry if it disappoints
but I’m not one of the boys
I'm happy being who I am
I Didn’t smoke something illegal
Didn’t break into a pool
Didn’t puke up in the taxi
Pass out blind drunk after all
I Didn’t go into a night club dance with all my heart and soul
It was all quite unadventurous cos I ’m not, I’m not rock and roll
The pills I pop are Claritin
I once OD’d on caffeine drinks
Laid out in my bed with the shakes
My needle’s in a sewing kit
I pricked myself, it hurt a bit
But my Dharma patch is looking pretty great
I’m sorry if it's hard to hear
But if I’m rock and roll so’s Britney Spears
And I think we’ll all agree that isn’t true
I Didn’t smoke something illegal
Didn’t break into a pool
Didn’t puke up in the taxi
Pass out blind drunk after all
I Didn’t go into a night club dance with all my heart and soul
It was all quite unadventurous cos I ’m not, I’m not rock and roll
There’s not a traffic cone in sight in my room
There’s not a road sign or a drunken tattoo
There’s not a beer glass or a red cup in sight
I could tell you blow by blow what happened last night
But it's not a very good story, it's very interesting so I'm not going to bother
I Didn’t smoke something illegal
Didn’t break into a pool
Didn’t puke up in the taxi
Pass out blind drunk after all
I Didn’t go into a night club dance with all my heart and soul
It was all quite unadventurous cos I ’m not, I’m not rock and roll
There's nothing pounding in my head
I remember what I did last night
Had a drink or two with friends
And that’s where the story ends
There’s nothing wild, there’s nothing else to tell
I’m sorry if it disappoints
but I’m not one of the boys
I'm happy being who I am
I Didn’t smoke something illegal
Didn’t break into a pool
Didn’t puke up in the taxi
Pass out blind drunk after all
I Didn’t go into a night club dance with all my heart and soul
It was all quite unadventurous cos I ’m not, I’m not rock and roll
The pills I pop are Claritin
I once OD’d on caffeine drinks
Laid out in my bed with the shakes
My needle’s in a sewing kit
I pricked myself, it hurt a bit
But my Dharma patch is looking pretty great
I’m sorry if it's hard to hear
But if I’m rock and roll so’s Britney Spears
And I think we’ll all agree that isn’t true
I Didn’t smoke something illegal
Didn’t break into a pool
