Foolish Notions

You feel desensitized, you feel numb
You wanna word it right but you're dumb
You're still shaking it and not as young
You know you're blowing it, so hold your tongue

Living on foolish notions
Living on aches and pains
You're pulling up stakes and leaving
You're looking for somebody to blame

There's been an accident but no one knows
Get off the little man, holes in your nose
You're still shaking it, the bars are closed
You know you're blowing it, that's how it goes

Living on foolish notions
Living on aches and pains
You're pulling up stakes and leaving
You're looking for somebody to blame
Living on foolish notions
Living on aches and pains
Looking for a place to do it
Send a message to the brain

And I don't want what we've been given
Easy sex and easy living
See what's next and see who's taken
Don't wanna check to see who's faking

You feel desensitized
You feel desensitized
You feel desensitized, ya

Living on foolish notions
Living on aches and pains
You're pulling up stakes and leaving
You're looking for somebody to blame
Living on foolish notions
Living on aches and pains
Looking for a place to do it
Send a message to the brain

And we don't want what we've been given

A foolish notion
A foolish notion
A foolish notion
