[Verse 1]
I’ve already been forced to go to church
I’ve already played "Für Elise" on the piano
I’ve already learned to fake my smile
I’ve already walked along the edge
I’ve already moved my bed
I’ve already done comedy, I’ve already done drama
I was straightforward, and I beat around the bush
I’ve played the good guy, and I’ve had a bad reputation
[Refrain]
I’ve been ethical and have been erratic
I’vе been skeptical and have been fanatical
I’ve been apathеtic, I’ve been methodical
I’ve been shameless, and I’ve been chaotic
[Verse 2]
I’ve already read Arthur Conan Doyle
I’ve already switched from gasoline to diesel
I’ve already read Breton and Molière
I’ve already slept on mattresses and box springs
I’ve already dyed my hair a different color
I’ve been against, and I’ve been in favor
What once brought me joy now brings me pain
I’ve already been on the other side of the counter
[Chorus]
And I hear a voice that says without reason:
"You’re always changing; now you never change"
And I’m even more and more the same
I don’t know what to do with myself anymore
[Verse 3]
I’ve already drowned in a glass of water
I’ve already planted coffee in Nicaragua
I’ve already gone to try my luck in the U.S
I’ve already played Russian roulette
I’ve already believed in Martians
I’ve been a healthy ovo-lacto-vegetarian
I’ve been calm, and nomadic
I’ve been relaxed and completely overwhelmed
I’ve taken a mythology course
But the gods laughed at me
I barely passed goldsmithing
And rhythmology—I’m applying it right here
[Refrain]
I’ve already tried, already smoked, already drunk, already quit
I’ve already signed, already traveled, already glued
I’ve suffered, I’ve avoided, I’ve fled, I’ve owned up
I’ve already left, already returned, already faked, already lied
[Pre-Chorus]
And among so many lies
Many of my falsehoods have become truths
I’ve made adversities easy
And I’ve complicated trivialities
[Chorus]
And I hear a voice that says with reason:
"You’re always changing; now you never change"
And I’m even more and more the same
I don’t know what to do with myself anymore
[Solo]
(Let’s go!)
[Verse 4]
I’ve already had a facelift, got a piercing
I went to see the Dream Team, but it didn’t click
I tattooed "Che" on one butt cheek
Above my mommy so it wouldn’t fade away
I’ve already laughed and couldn’t care less
About things and people that now scare me
I’ve fasted for meaningless causes
I’ve gorged myself on rotisserie chicken
[Bridge]
I’ve been to a psychologist, been to a theologian
Been to an astrologer, been to a wine expert
I’ve been an alcoholic and a sycophant
I’ve been anonymous, I’ve been on a diet
I’ve thrown rocks and spat
At the place where I now work
And my record shows in detail
That I’ve behaved well and caused trouble!
[Chorus]
And I hear a voice that says without reason:
"You’re always changing; now you never change"
And I’m even more and more the same
I don’t know what to do with myself anymore
And I hear a voice that says with reason:
"You’re always changing; now you never change"
And I’m even more and more the same
I don’t know what to do with myself anymore
