I'll Be You

If it's a temporary lull
Why'm i bored right outta my skull?
Man, i'm dressin' sharp an' feelin' dull

Lonely, i guess that's where i'm from
If i was from canada
Then i'd best be called lonesome
[btw, i read in an interview that paul was struck with how some people in
Canada used the word 'lonesome' instead of 'lonely,' hence this lyric.]

And if it's just a game
Then i'll break down just in case
Hurry up, we're runnin' in our last race

Well, i laughed half the way to tokyo
I dreamt i was surfer joe
An' what that means, i don't know

A dream too tired to come true
Left a rebel without a clue
And i'm searching for somethin' to do

And if it's just a game
Then we'll hold hands just the same
So what, we're bleeding but we ain't cut

And i could purge my soul perhaps
For the imminent collapse
Oh yeah, i'll tell you what we could do
You be me for a while
I'll be you

A dream too tired to come true
Left a rebel without a clue
Won't you tell me what i should do?

And if it's just a lull
Why'm i bored right outta my skull?
Oh yeah, keep me from feeling so dull

And if it's just a game
Then we'll break down just in case
Then again, i'll tell you what we could do
You be me for a while
You be me for a while
And i'll be you
