Lyrics of It ain't easy bein' me

There ought to be a town somewhere
Named for how i feel
Yeah, i could be the mayor down there
Say, welcome to sorryville

It wouldn't be on a map nowhere
You might say it that it don't exist
But if you make enough wrong turns
It'd be hard to miss

There ought to be a bridge somewhere
They could dedicate to me
I'd probably come to the ceremony
With a can of gasoline

And walk on over to the other side
And there i'd light a match
And sit and stare through the smoke and flames
Wonderin' how i'm gonna get back

Why do i do the things i do?
Was i born this way? am i a self-made fool?
I shoot the lights and i curse the dark
I need your love but i break your heart

And i know the words that'll bring you back
But i don't say nothin' as i watch you pack
I had to work to be the jerk i've come to be
It ain't easy bein' me

Ought to be a side show act
For freaks like me
Yeah, i could be the star of the show
With my name on the marquee

In a room with a big red button
That says, "danger, do not touch"
Twice a day i'd mash it down
And you could watch me self-destruct

Why do i do the things i do?
Was i born this way? am i a self-made fool?
I shoot the lights and i curse the dark
I need your love but i break your heart

And i know the words that'll bring you back
But i don't say nothin' as i watch you pack
I had to work to be the jerk i've come to be
It ain't easy bein' me
Now, it ain't easy bein' me
