Lyrics

Life ain't always what it seems
I can live inside my dreams
When everything I try to do
Seems like a catch twenty two

There's dirty dishes in the sink
My whites have all turned to pink
There's nothing at all I can do
Guess it's a catch twenty-two.

I remember when life was easy and nothing ever got to me
Summertime was breezy and my friends were wild and free
Now everything's a circle with no way to break the chain
I only want to run away and end this crazy game
It's a catch twenty-two.

I try to make a buck or two
Shouldn't be too hard to do
Can't afford to get in the game
Shame it's a catch twenty-two.

Asked the man to get me a gig
So someday I could make it big
Said you won't get far if you're not a star
It's a catch twenty-two.

I remember when life was easy and nothing ever got to me
Summertime was breezy and my mind was high and free
Now everything's a circle, there's no way to break the chain
I only want to run away and end this crazy game
It's a catch twenty-two.

Can't tell if it's black or white
Don't know if it's day or it's night
So maybe I'll just sleep through the light
And wake me up with the moon.

Forget the catch twenty two.
