Out Of Control - Oingo Boingo

Everyone says, sooner or later

You’ll reach the end of the line

When things get rough

Some think it’s easy to jump the ship…

You decide

I say, don’t throw it away

There’s about a million reasons why

Though you’ve heard them all before

And you’re getting very tired

Lay your head on my lap

And I’ll sing you this lullaby:

Don’t you know

That everyone around you

Has felt the pain you feel today?

You’re out of control, yeah—

And you want someone to tell you

When you wake up in the morning, it’ll only be a dream

You’re out of control…

There’s a cloud rollin' overhead

And it seems to rain on no one else

There’s a black sun casting a black shadow

And I know you feel so all alone

You’re out of control—and you want the world to love you

Or maybe you just want a chance to let them know

Yeah, that you live and breathe and suffer

And your back is in the corner

And you’ve got nowhere to go

Nothing for nothing—everything's right at your fingertips—for a price

Who ever said that life on this planet would ever be paradise?

I say, don’t throw it away;

you’ve got too many things to say

If you throw away your life—if you throw away your life

If you throw away your life, the world will never be the same

Don’t you know

That everyone around you

Has felt the pain you feel today?

You’re out of control, yeah—it'll only be a dream

You’re out of control—and you move without direction

And people look right through your soul

You’re out of control—and you want someone to tell you:

When you wake up in the morning, it’ll only be a dream

And I wish that I could tell you it’ll only be a dream
