The Jester - Mekong Delta

I’m a member of the motley crew

Pleasing the rich and kings

When I make 'em laugh

Nobody even cares

What’s inside my mind

Don’t seem to get what I’m looking for

And I can’t stand it anymore

Can’t you see

Can’t you see

Don’t drag me down

Don’t push me 'round

Don’t drag me down

Don’t push me 'round

I’m gonna get what I’m yearning for

Break out and play my part no more

That’s what I say

That’s what I say

I sit and I wait till the big boss’s calling me

Now I wish I could hide away

You’ll see me smile

But I’m hurt inside

Now I wish I could break away

I can’t stand it anymore

Don’t wanna play the fool no more

Gotta break away

Gotta break away

When you gaze at me it’s like

A look into mirror

And here is what you’re bound to see

Someone like you

Leading a kind

Of life that’s killing me

I’m gonna get what I’m yearning for

Break out and play my part no more

That’s what I say

That’s what I say

I’ll be just I wanna be

Wanna be — desperately
