Rock 'n' Roll was dead before it crawled up in my head
And there's a man in the mirror saying, "Now you gotta lay in your bed."
They say, "Daddy's coming home, daddy's gonna be, everything you thought that a dad ought to be."
But he fell into the bottle that his father made him keep in his desk
You don't dream like I dream
I go to hell when I'm fast asleep
You don't know what it's like to be this low
You might laugh, I'll just scream
If we built this ship just to watch it sink
Because you don't like me
Because you don't like me
Because you don't like me
Because you don't like me
Jen has got a smile that could walk your heart right off of a ledge
Because the California sun and the ocean made the hair on her head
She says, "I don't really know who I'm gonna be. So who you gonna love if my love runs free?"
Then she lead me to edge of the water where we sleep in the sand
You don't dream like I dream
I go to hell when I'm fast asleep
You don't know what it's like to be this low
You might laugh, I'll just scream
If we built this ship just to watch it sink
Because you don't like me
Because you don't like me
Because you don't like me
Because you don't like me
You can't run away until you come home
So don't be afraid of what you can't hold
You can never really know until you've lost what you had
But whatever goes away, well it always comes back
You can't run away until you come home
So don't be afraid of what you can't hold
You can never really know until you've lost what you had
But whatever goes awayeeaay
You don't dream like I dream
I go to hell when I'm fast asleep
You don't know what it's like to be this low
You might laugh, I'll just scream
If we built this ship just to watch it sink
Because you don't like me
Because you don't like me
Because you don't like me
Because you don't like me
