I wasn't born to be anything
When people pass me they look at the ground
This is just temporary
Since the hospital closed down
I came here in the Eighties
Today's my birthday
Can I have five dollars?
How do you like my town?
The weather here is perfect
It hardly ever rains
Someone took my shoes
While I was dreaming of your face
Happy birthday
I'm living in a dream
My head is like an earthquake
And it's ripping at the seam
[Harmonica Solo]
There are people in my head
Some are nice but most are mean
They're giving me advice
While I'm walking down the street
They tell me to make faces
They tell me to scream
But they mostly say I'm worthless
And that I don't deserve a thing
I'm stretched out in the park
The kids are playing chase
Someone took my shoes
While I was dreaming of your face
Happy birthday
Who was it that I was?
But I'm singing like a toothache
And I'm smiling just because
Happy birthday
I'm living in a dream
