People
J.A.L.N. Band Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I talked to people today
Lots of people today
Talked to people today
Lots of people today

But none had much to say
They all just laughed
But none had much to say
I sit and stared
I felt like a clown

And what's a man to do
Go home and lay
You don't want nothing more
You don't want nothing more

Felt like a clown
People today




People today
People today
