I'm just looking for some fun And I'm always on the run From the people who are dragging me down I don't mean to complain But I gotta explain Why I gotta get out of this town My head's in a mess And I have to confess I am feeling kinda dizzy and dangerous I'm high on low self-esteem And if this ain't a dream Please tell me it's a figment of sleepiness Chewing bubblegum, want it all It's all we do Chewing bubblegum, just because It's what the TV tells us to do When I look all around All I see are the clowns Working for the establishment The jobs are fried And the clowns can't sleep at night But who cares? It pays the rent Well, I'm feeling all alone And there's nobody home But I suddenly realize that all on my own If I had to choose I'd rather be abused By myself instead of the friends who have blown Chewing bubblegum, again and again I don't need any friends Chewing bubblegum, it's all you do So I am through with you Chewing bubblegum, again and again I don't need any friends Chewing bubblegum, it's all you do So I am through with you
