The Outdoor Type

Always had a roof above me

Always paid the rent

And I never set foot inside a tent

I couldn't build a fire

To save my life

I lied about bein' the outdoor type

I never slept out underneath the stars

The closest that I came to that

Was one time my car

Broke down for an hour

In the suburbs at night

I lied about bein' the outdoor type

Too scared to let you know

You knew what you were lookin' for

I lied until I fit the bill

God bless the great indoors

I lied about bein' the outdoor type

I never rode a sleepin' bag

Let alone a mountain bike

I can't go away with you on a rock climbin' weekend

What if somethin's on TV and it's never shown again?

Just as well, I'm not invited

I'm afraid of heights

I lied about bein' the outdoor type

Never learned to swim

Can't grow a beard or even fight

I lied about bein' the outdoor type
