F#
wish I could lye in the sun
same things as anyone
B
wish I could lye down there
                       F#
with my feet high in the air

F#
I have a drink in my hand
read words from a newspaperstand
B
wish I could lye in the sun
                           F#
wish I could fly like everyone

C#
same things as anyone
same things as anyone

Chorus:
B
but you burn me up, you paint my skin,
                        F#    C#
in bad designsthat aint even in

My skin's crawling up the wall
Into the the ocean I'd love to fall
I hear the sounds but they ain't the same
As feeling them with you two feet away

There's always more worse of than me
Suppose I'm lucky I can even see
All the people that I'd like to be
Passing me by everyday in the street

The same things as anyone
The same things as anyone

Chorus:
But you burn me up, you paint my skin
In bad designs that ain't even in
I got good lungs, I got a good heart
My mind is fit and my feet can walk

Here I am in the shade on the street
Asking people for money to eat
What did I ever do to deserve this?
Did I kill a child or something worse?

The same things as anyone

What's the reason, baby make you feel
How much more fortunate you are than me
