Hard To Explain by The Strokes
Was an honest man
Asked me for the phone
Tried to (1)________ control
(Oh) I don't see it that way
I don't see it (2)________ way
(Oh) we shared some ideas
All obsessed (3)________ fame
Says we're all the same
(Oh) I don't see it (4)________ way
I don't see it that way
Raised in Carolina
I'm not like that
Trying to remind her
When we go back
I (5)____________ the last bus
I'll (6)________ the (7)________ train
I try but you see
It's hard to explain
I say the (8)__________ things
But act the (9)__________ way
I (10)________ it right here
But I (11)____________ stay
I watch the TV
Forget what I'm told
Well I am too young
And (12)________ are too old
The joke is on you
This place is a zoo
You're right it's true
Says he can't decide
Shake my (13)________ to say
Everything's just great
(Oh) I (14)________ can't remember
I just can't remember
Raised in Carolina
She says
I'm not (15)________ that
Trying to remind her
When we go back
I say the right things
But act the (16)__________ way
I like it right here
But I cannot stay
I (17)__________ the TV
Forget what I'm told
Well I am too young
And they are too old
(Oh) man, can't you see
I'm nervous, so please
Pretend to be nice
So I can be mean
I (18)____________ the last bus
We take the next train
I try but you see
It's hard to explain
