Flannel Graph White Picket Fence Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You said, "We'll be fine,"
"We'll make a living and the world will be kinder."
You said, "We'll be free, "
"We'll make some money and you'll sleep beside me"
But oh man, oh man, man, oh man
What are we doing?

[Verse 2]
You said, "Just be strong,"
"We'll keep on laughing like there's nothing wrong."
You said, "There's a chance,"
"We'll settle down with a white picket fence."
But oh man, oh man, man, oh man, man, oh man
What are we doing?

[Bridge]
'Cause I, I don't want to just be fine
I don't want to live a fenced in life
With the alarm systems inside
I, I don't want to just be good
There's an aching to be something more
A body on restore, on restore

But man, oh man, man, oh man, man by man
What are we doing?
