Текст песни What Exactly's the Matter With Me - Barry McGuire

Why do I deny all that′s accepted true?
Why can't I live my life like I′m expected to?
Get a college degree, buy a color TV?
Oh what's exactly the matter with me?

I believe no one's conclusions, I think for myself.
I take nothing for granted, my brain ain′t on the shelf.
I′ve got my views though I may sound confused.
Oh what's exactly the matter with me?

Why can′t I settle down in one little place?
Find me a girl and get out of this race?
But, my boots start itching, my eyes start looking.
Oh what's exactly the matter with me?

Why can′t I march when the cause is just?
Stamp out oppression, greed and lust?
Oh, inferiority, insecurity.
Yeah, that's exactly the matter with me.

Why do I "yes" people that I despise?
Why can′t I say "I hate you" right to your eyes?
Oh, Inferiority, pent up hostility.
Yeah, that's exactly the matter with me.
That's exactly the matter with me.
