Listen to the words   Come out of my mouth   I'm leaving this place   And moving down south   This time   It's a new way of life      I haven't got much hope   It's gone beyond a joke      I find I live my life in a daydream   A reverie   A constant stream      Would you like to extend your hand   And help a man who can't understand?   Why everyone is leaving the nest   I'm feeling like an unwelcome guest      Help me find a way to get what I need   I need to be strong and I want to succeed   This time   It's a new way of life      I haven't got much hope   It's gone beyond a joke      I find I live my life on the outside   Looking in   I have my pride      Would you like to extend your hand   And help a man who can't understand?   Why everyone is leaving the nest   I'm feeling like an unwelcome guest      And all my friends have drifted apart   It's time for their excuses to start   Now everyone is flying the nest   I'm feeling like an unwelcome guest
