I'm Not One Of Those

People tell me to keep my mouth shut.
When I talk they just sneers at me
Their mouths are opened wide in disbelief

From the frying pan to the flyer
Every step I take for to
The smoke beneath my feet
I realize

I'm not one of those
No, no, no
I'm not one of those
I can do the best I can
'Cause I am that's what I am
Can you see?
Oh can't you see?

Moving fast but going nowhere
People bumping their arms and legs
They leave a trail of sweat and in an inch

Who's the good guy, and who's the bad guy
Does it matter or only counts
Which side that you're on
I realize

I'm not one of those
No, no, no
I'm not one of those
I can do the best I can
'Cause I am that's what I am
Can you see?
Oh can't you see me?

People taking chances
All these people taking chances
Try to get there while it's good
All it's such a game

Be happy I'm not back tonight
'Cause tomorrow I'll find out
You took me for a ride
All is such a shame

It's just a game
But all the same
It's such a shame

I'm not one of those
No, no, no
I'm not one of those
I can do the best I can
'Cause I am that's what I am
Can you see?
Oh can't you see?
