Song Lyrics

How fast does the time go?
How high does the wind blow?
You don't know, do you ain't paid attention?
You can't think, can you increase the tension?
And you're running out to hide, 'cause you

A problem child, you ain't got any sense
A problem child, you can't find no defense
'Cause even though your heart is full of problems
Nobody sees them, no one sees them, baby, but you and me
Ooh, yeah, baby, but you and me

How much does your life mean?
How dumb do the birds seem?
Flying round, aimlessly in circles
Just like you, playing with your sad curls
And tears rollin' down your face, 'cause you

A problem child, you ain't got any sense
A problem child, you can't find no defense
'Cause even though your heart is full of problems
Nobody sees them, no one sees them, baby, but you and me
Ooh, yeah, baby, but you and me

Everything you try to do gets in somebody's way
Like a part that just don't work, you're useless so they say
Everything you wear don't fit, your dreams are made of gray
Stay with them and hope they'll turn to something, someday
Don't get wild they've only got you filed down as a problem child

A problem child, you ain't got any sense
A problem child, you can't find no defense
'Cause even though your heart is full of problems
Nobody sees them, no one sees them, baby, but you and me
Ooh, yeah, baby, but you and me
Just like me and you
