I was born again a little north of Disney Land

Somewhere under Wonderland and Hollywood

But then I had to go skipping and diving and bouncing back to New York City

Straight through the heart of America where all the wild things grow I want to be an earthquake driver

I want to be an aquarium diver

I just don't want to go home I live alone but I am hungry for affection

I just struggle with connection til the water calls me home

Down into ocean among millions of other lonely people

Drowning among the only people we are ever going to know I want to be an earthquake driver

I want to be an aquarium diver

I just don't want to go home I want to be like the people I see

They run all over just like me

I was saved but what keeps me awake

Is I'm tied into the lightning line

And I wanna see where the sun is shining

All night just a waste of time I, I don't want to see people like me

Just sleeping in, waking in, hoping in, hating in You look at me like I'm some kind of carnival attraction

You say love's this abstraction, just some ghost that you chase

Well, I am sorry friend, I am a blank space

But the words you remember from whenever you saw my face I want to be an earthquake driver

I don't want to be an aquarium diver

I just don't want to go home I want to be like the people I see

Hey man, they run all over just like me

I want to thank for what keeps me awake

This unplugged ears to the lightning lining

I want to see if the sun is shining

All night, chasing time I, I don't want to be with people like me

Just creeping in, waking in, hoping in, hating in So what is the point of this famous self absorption?

We turn ourselves into orphans and then spend out nights alone

Living in fear of some kind of imaginary consequence

Terror incognito, ob-la-di ob-la-da I want to be an earthquake driver

I don't want to be an aquarium diver

I just don't want to go home Truth is I don't want to be no earthquake driver

And I don't want to be an aquarium diver

I just don't want to go home Oh man, just don't want to go home

No, I do not want to go home
