Текст (слова) песни: John Mayer - No Such Thing (Extended Live Version)



Freshman year,
Mom asks "What do you want to do
when you get out of here?"
I said, "Well, gee, I`m only 13,
but I think I`d like to play my guitar...
be a star."
"Well," she said, "that`s not it,
you got time to go.
Good sense will kick in anytime, you know.
I`m not worried, I`m not worried."

Sophomore year,
she asked the same old thing,
my answer had remained unchanged.
I saw her fidget with her thumbs.
She said, "You like computers, John,
you like computers, don`t you?
Yeah, I always see you with computers...
you like computers
maybe you could do something with computers.
Yeah, wouldn`t that be nice?"

Junior year,
It`s a little more intense,
She says, "What do you want to do with your life?"
I`m not on the fence, I know exactly what I aim to be,
and I`m only 17.
She said, "Well, all I ask, is that you pay attention in class,
so if you happen to change your mind in time,
you can still go somewhere reputable...
do us proud."
So I went downstairs,
and I played guitar loud.

Yeah, senior year,
Same old question,
She said, "What do you want to do?"
I said, "Play my guitar and sing."
She said, "There`s no such thing."
She said, "There`s no such thing..."

(speaking: I love you Mom)

"Welcome to the real world", she said to me
Condescendingly
Take a seat, take your life
Plot it out in black and white
Well, I never lived the dreams of the prom kings
And the drama queens
I`d like to think the best of me
Is still hiding up my sleeve

They love to tell you
Stay inside the lines
But something`s better
On the other side

I wanna run through the halls of my high school
I wanna scream at the top of my lungs
I just found out there`s no such thing as the real world
Just a lie you`ve got to rise above

So the good boys and girls take the so called right track
Faded hats
Grabbing credits
and maybe transfers
They listen to Phish, but they can`t find the answers
And all of our parents
They`re getting older
I wonder if they`ve wished for anything better
While in their memories
Tiny tragedies

They love to tell you
Stay inside the lines
Well, well something`s better
On the other side

I wanna run through the halls of my high school
I wanna scream at the top of my lungs
I just found out there`s no such thing as the real world
Just a lie you got to rise above

I am invincible..
You are invincible.. (yeah you are)
We are invincible..
As long as we`re alive

Do I have to tell a story
of a thousand rainy days
since we first met?
It`s a big enough umbrella
but it`s always me
that ends up getting wet.

I wanna run through the halls of my high school
I wanna scream at the top of my lungs
I just found out there`s no such thing as the real world
Just a lie you`ve got to rise above

I just can`t wait til my 10 year reunion
I`m gonna bust down the double doors
And when I stand on these tables before you
You will know what all this time was for
