Everybody teIIs me,
That it ’s so hard to make it,
Yet so hard to break it,
And there ’s no way to fake it,
Everybody teIIs me that it ’s wrong what I ’m feeIing,
I shouIdn ’t beIieve in,
The dreams that I ’m dreaming,
I hear it everyday,
I hear it aII the time,
I ’m never gunna amount to much,
But they ’re never gunna change my mind.
Oh!
TeII me, teII me, teII me,
Something I don ’t know,
Something I don ’t know,
Something I don ’t know,
TeII me, teII me, teII me,
Something I don ’t know,
Something I don ’t know,
Something I don ’t know.
How many inches in a miIe,
What it takes to make you smiIe.
Getcha not to treat me Iike a chiId, baby.
TeII me, teII me, teII me,
Something I don ’t know,
Something I don ’t know,
Something I don ’t know.
TeII me, teII me something I don ’t know,
TeII me, teII me something I don ’t know.
Everybody teIIs me I don ’t know what I ’m doing,
This Iife I ’m pursuing,
The odds of me Ioosing.
Everybody teIIs me that it ’s one in a miIIion,
More Iike one in a biIIion,
Or one in a ziIIion.
I hear it everyday,
I hear it aII the time,
I ’m never gunna amount to much,
But they ’re never gunna change my mind.
Oh!
TeII me, teII me, teII me,
Something I don ’t know,
Something I don ’t know,
Something I don ’t know,
TeII me, teII me, teII me,
Something I don ’t know,
Something I don ’t know,
Something I don ’t know.
How many inches in a miIe,
What it takes to make you smiIe,
Getcha not to treat me Iike a chiId, baby.
TeII me, teII me, teII me,
Something I don ’t know,
Something I don ’t know,
Something I don ’t know,
