Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Out of the zone, trying to see
I'm so alone, nothing for me
I guess I'll go home, try to be sane
Try to pretend, none of it happened
Oh, this old tree, lonely old me
Whoops-a-daisy, I thought I was happy, oh
[Verse 2]
Out of the zone, now that I see
I don't need them and they don't need me
I guess I'll go home, try to be sane
Try to pretend, none of it happened
Destined to be, lonely old me
Whoops-a-daisy, I thought I was happy, oh
[Verse 3]
Ah, why won't they talk to me?
I thought I was happy, oh
Ah, why won't they talk to me?
I thought I was happy, oh
Ah, why won't they talk to me?
I thought I was happy, oh
Ah, why won't they talk to me?
Ah, why won't they talk to me?
[Verse 4]
But I don't really care about it anyway
I wouldn't listen to a word any others say
They just talk about themselves all day
One day I'll be a star they'll be sorry
Ah, why won't they talk to me?
[Verse 5]
Ah, why won't they talk to me?
[Verse 6]
Ah, why won't they talk to me?
Ah, why won't they talk to me?
Ah, why won't they talk to me?
