What I Don't Want Lyrics - Odds

Everything's a mess 

I sleep but don't undress 

Drinking all but the Tia Maria 

I never finished any of these books 

Hanging open like house plants 

Begging for water and a little reading 

Holding that one big idea I'm needing 

I know what I don't want 

I really know what I don't want 

I don't really, really know 

What I want, do I? 

Another black shirt 

Won't show the dirt 

I could wash but 

I don't even bother 

Some piece of trite trash trumpets out the radio 

But I don't turn it off 

I need to loathe its creation 

Contempt is my one contemplation 

'Cause I know what I don't want 

I really know what I don't want 

I don't really, really know 

What I want, do I? 

Red in the face from the air in this place 

It's closed so I open the window 

Something about heights makes a man 

Start to reach for the bottom 

Dull in the mind from oversleeping 

I look for the things 

That are really worth keeping 

'Cause I know what I don't want 

I really know what I don't want 

I don't really, really know 

What I want, do I? 

I know what I don't want 

I really know what I don't want 

I don't really, really know 

What I want, do I?
