Ceiling In My Room Lyrics - Monkees

by David Jones, Don DeMieri & Robert Dick 

I'm a millionaire 

Without a care in the world, 

I have played the game, 

I've made the grade, I've shown them all. 

I'm a teenage idol just starting a tune, 

No, it's just the ceiling in my room. 

I have got more friends 

Than I've ever had before, 

But, are all these friends 

Like the ones I knew before? 

Hey, look, there's my old schoolmates there at my back door, 

No, it's just the ceiling in my room. 

If I could only be part 

Of the things that I see, 

I'd trade all the wealth and fame 

You've given to me, 

Oh, I want to be free. 

But, no matter what 

My future may bring, 

I always will remember 

Just one simple thing. 

That when all my visions contain only gloom, 

I know it's just the ceiling in my room, my room, my room. 

La-da-ta, la-da-ta, da-da-da-da-da-ta-ta 

La-da-da, la-da-da, da-da-daah. 

fade out...
