Don't Wanna Be Like That (Live at WDR Studio Cologne 14.03.1980)

Don't Wanna Be Like That (Live) - Joe Jackson

Wooh oh oh ooww

Wooh oh oh ooww oh oh ow

Ok let me tell you 'bout some of the things

I'm going through

I know you think that you know but how do you know

That what you know is true

Oh well maybe it's time for getting out of line

While it seems I've been done thing to do

Some people get crazy

Some people get lazy

Some people get hazy

Some people get out

Take me away I said take me away

I don't wanna be like that

And take me away I said take me away

I don't wanna be like that

Don't wanna be like that

Don't wanna be like that

Don't wanna be like that

Don't wanna be like that

And now the coc*ine club says welcome

You're in college now not in school

But I'm sorry to say that I'm going out to work

While you're going to the swimming pool

Where the L A sun can turn your brains

To scrambled eggs it's true

Some people get crazy

Some people get lazy

People get hazy

Some people get out

Take me away I said take me away

I don't wanna be like that

And take me away I said take me away

I don't wanna be like that

Don't wanna be like that

Don't wanna be like that

Don't wanna be like that

Don't wanna be like that

Wooh oh oh ooww

Wooh oh oh ooww oh oh ow

Some people think that they know about some girls

Some people think they're cool

And some girls think that they know about me

Was some girls think I'm some fool

And American girls that put their tongue in your ear

When they talk on the telephone

And the stars only come out at night

When the press and photographers moan and groan

And the playboy centerfold leaves me cold

And that ain't 'cause I'm a fag

So you playboys can just go play with yourself

That's your style

'Cause that's a drag

You're crazy

Lazy

Take me away

Just wanna get

Just wanna get around you

Take me away I said take me away

I don't wanna be like that

And take me away I said take me away

I don't wanna be like that

Yeah

Take me away I said take me

Take me away

Take me away I said take me away

I don't wanna be like that

Don't wanna be like that

Don't wanna be like that

Don't wanna be like that

Don't wanna be like that
