[Intro] Oh, oh I love you Oh, oh I do I got a sentimental illness for you Please don't go away, oh yeah [Verse 1] I was a high school atom bomb Going off on the weekends Smoking dope and mowing lawns And I hated all the new trends [Pre-Chorus 1] Me and my friends sang: "Woah! Here's to the middle of the road! At least it's better than here" [Chorus 1] Looking for a cause But all I got was Santa Claus I'm hanging on a dream that's too dumb to die I feel like a cello Lost somewhere over the rainbow Way up high, too scared to dream But too dumb to die [Verse 2] My daddy always was on strike Going off with the teamsters He said that "Everything will be alright... Not every Sunday can be Easter" [Pre-Chorus 2] The picket line screamed: "Woah! Don't cross Don't cross the line because you'll be a scab, not a martyr!" [Chorus 2] Looking for a cause But all I got was camouflage I'm hanging on a dream that's too dumb to die I feel like a cello Lost somewhere over the rainbow Way up high Too scared to dream But too dumb to... uhm... yeah.. [Chorus 2] Looking for a cause But all I got was camouflage I'm hanging on a dream that's too dumb to die I feel like a cello Lost somewhere over the rainbow Way up high, too scared to dream But too dumb to die
