Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I woke up this morning
Didn't recognize the man in the mirror
Then I laughed and I said
"Oh, silly me, that's just me"
Then I proceeded
To brush some stranger's teeth
But they were my teeth
And I was weightless
Just quivering like some leaf
Come in the window of a restroom
[PreChorus]
I couldn't tell you what the hell it was supposed to mean
But it was a Monday, no, a Tuesday
No, a Wednesday, Thursday, Friday
Then Saturday came around and I said
"Who's this stupid clown blocking the bathroom sink?"
[Chorus]
All he ever wanted
Was to be someone in life
That was just like
All I want is to just have fun
Live my life like a son of a gun
I could be one thousand miles away
But still mean what I say
[Verse 2]
Then I woke up one morning
Didn't recognize the man in the mirror
Then I laughed and I said
Oh, silly me, that's just me
Then I proceeded to not comb some strangers hair
Never was my style
[PreChorus]
But I couldn't tell you
What the hell it was supposed to mean
'Cause it was a Monday, no, a Tuesday
No, a Wednesday, Thursday, Friday
Then Saturday came around and I said
Who's this stupid clown blocking the bathroom sink?
But he was sporting all my clothes
I gotta say, pretty pimpin'
[Chorus]
All he ever wanted
Was to be a man, but he was always
A little too cute to admitted under marbles lost
He was always a thousand miles away
While still standing in front of your face
[Verse 3]
Then he woke up this morning
Didn't recognize the boy in the mirror
Then laughed and said
"Oh, silly me, that's just me"
Then I proceeded to brush some stranger's teeth
But they were my teeth
And I was weightless
Just quivering like some leaf
Come in the window of a restroom
[PreChorus]
And I couldn't tell you what the hell it was supposed to mean
'Cause it was a Monday, no, a Tuesday
No, a Wednesday, Thursday, Friday
Then Saturday came around and I said
"Who's this stupid clown blocking the bathroom sink?"
But he was sporting all my clothes
I gotta say, pretty pimpin'
[Outro]
I woke up this morning
Didn't recognize the boy in the mirror
I woke up this morning
Didn't recognize the boy in the mirror
I woke up this morning
Didn't recognize the boy in the mirror
I woke up this morning
Didn't recognize the boy in the mirror
I woke up this morning
Didn't recognize the boy in the mirror
I woke up this morning
Didn't recognize the boy in the mirror
