Louden Swain - Overachiever lyrics

Thoughts in my head Drift around like lead Won't go away Go away or I'll be forced to retire They'll put my number in the rafters Why does it rhyme? Does it always have to fit in a box? I think outside a lot A hole in my head And I don't know where my sledge hammer went Go away, go away But not too far away Living like a dad It's no big deal that he's never here And he's never coming back There's a key there's a key I can't find it but it sounds good to me Open sesame I look like a dog But I'm all cat inside I dress like a slob There's no more feeling in my toe that's a lie I can't tell you why I see all the ghosts Not in my closet anymore They're in my room They're in my room They're in my bathroom They're steaming up the mirror They want us outta here It's just like you said There's a ghost in my head You live and then you're dead Ask my Mom and believe her When she says I was an overachiever A cool demeanor In it's place there's a fever There's a boy he's alive He's a little eager beaver Ask my Mom and believe her When she says I was an overachiever Why did he leave her In his place there's a fever There's a boy he's alive He's alive he's a leader
