Crackpot by Ric Ocasek Lyrics

I'm a crackpot lately I keep looking down
And I'm looking for something that can't be found
And I'm stumbling and rumbling all over town
Just looking for a better sign

I'm industrial jargon with a big lip plan
And I'm not even sure if I take a stand
But I keep on trying hard to understand
What I'm missing in this life

And then I wander off in space
'Cause there is no better place
And I target all my thoughts
And I try not to get caught

I'm a city sipper and I get so wired
And my attitude is going to get me fired
Oh, I like to think straight but it gets me tired
So I hang on to the dream

I can love so easy but they hold me back
Yeah, it's hard enough trying to stay on track
And whatever you take, you got to give it back
But not everybody knows that
And then I wander off in space
'Cause there is no better place
And I target all my thoughts
And I try not to get caught
