Somewhat Off The Way Lyrics - Singles - Dogs Die In Hot Cars

Were the teachers any good at it? 

Were they good at their jobs? 

It must be hard, can they handle it 

When we become what they said we'd not? 

Now we work and we pay for it doing any old chore 

It makes money so we stick it through 

And day to day the days go by 

And by and by and by and well 

I just don't want to die like a fool 

I'm not lost, I'm somewhat off the way 

I'm gonna do what I said I'd do at school 

And be the one that says "Hey, this ain't so hard and it's kind of cool" 

When we look at the clock we know 

How much longer we have 

It's not the hours and the minutes that go 

It's everything that we said and it's gone are you glad 

Now we're struggling to pay the bills 

With the money we've got 

And the world seems to frown on us 

And we're learning more than we've ever learnt and I like it a lot 

I just don't want to die like a fool 

I'm not lost, I'm somewhat off the way 

I'm gonna do what I said I'd do at school 

And be the one that says "Hey, this ain't so hard and it's kind of cool"
