Lyrics

Sometimes I wonder if you're really living

Oh, what is this feeling you think that you're giving

Well, you can sit down, all wrecked and dismayed

Wondering why are all the plans that you laid

But you can watch rafferty turn into a serial

Oh, you can watch rafferty turn into a serial

You can watch rafferty turn into a serial

Oh, just like a cartoon by A-A-P

Oh, it's just like a cartoon by A-A-P, oh yeah

Oh whether to phone you

Or whether to see

I never do anything

You never do things for me

I wander around

I just wander around

I just wander around

I just wander around

But you can watch rafferty turn into a serial

Oh, you can watch rafferty turn into a serial

You can watch rafferty turn into a serial

So here comes my head

And my hand just behind, so, yeah, yeah, yeah

I stand in the street

I look for someone to meet

But you don't call me or phone

Oh, your never alone

I wander around

I just wander around

I just wander around

I just wander around

Oh, but you can watch rafferty turn into a serial

Oh, you can watch rafferty turn into a serial

Oh, you can watch rafferty turn into a serial

And just like a cartoon by AAP

Oh, you can watch rafferty turn into a serial

Oh, it's just like sleeping gas, now, it's so ethereal

Oh, it's just like sleeping gas, now, it's so ethereal

Oh, it's just like sleeping gas, now, it's so ethereal

I wander around, I just wander around

I just wander around

I just wander around

I just wander around

I just wander around

I just wander around

I just wander around

I just wander around

I just wander around

I just wander around

I just wander around

It's just like sleeping gas, now, it's so ethereal

It's just like sleeping gas, now, it's so ethereal
