Counting Airplanes

I put ketchup on my scrambled eggs

And everybody thinks it's funny

I don't get mad

I don't laugh 'cause you don't shave your legs

But everybody thinks it's funny

No need to get mad

I don't spend my time with anyone

Who doesn't think I'm wonderful

Or somewhat cash refundable at times

Now I'm out here counting airplanes

Trying to make sense of the change

And I don't wanna be just anybody

So don't try to figure me out

I won't try to figure you out

I don't wanna be some average anybody

Now I got friends that ride into the storm

And ride out of the storm with nothing

They rode into the storm with

And there seems to be a price for everything

You get what you pay for then you pay for

What you already thought you bought before

But now I'm out here counting airplanes

Trying to make sense of the change

And I don't wanna be just anybody

So don't try to figure me out

I won't try to figure you out

I don't wanna be some average anybody

When you're up between the new sky line

The city lights and the warm sunshine

It's a long way down

When you can count on one hand what you love

And can count on who you love to help you

On your long way down

Well you end up counting airplanes

Trying to keep up with the changes

I don't wanna be with anybody else

So don't try to figure me out

I won't try to figure you out

I don't wanna be some average anybody

I don't wanna be with anybody else

When you're up between the new sky line

The city lights and the warm sunshine

It's a long way down, it's a long way down
