Barking Up The Wrong Tree

The fact is
You're barking up the wrong tree
Nobody knows but me
You look but you never see
You're just barking up the wrong tree

You getting' tired of bein' inspired
By people that you'll never be
You say you're tired of doing things
That people never seem to see

Baby that's where you're wrong
(You're mistaken)
When you said you don't belong
(You're only fakin')

But could it really just be me
Barking up the wrong tree?

Slippin' on the same old shoes
And reading all the same old news
Nothing changes downtown
It just goes round and round and up and down

Agonisin' over songs
That no one's ever gonna hear
When you whisper in my ear
It seems to all just disappear

Now you're taking all your dirty clothes
To some place that nobody knows
And you're playing with the stereo
Better try to keep the volume nice and low

But that's where you're wrong
(You'd be mistaken)
When you say you don't belong
(You're only fakin')
Could it really just be me
Who's barking up the wrong tree?

You can paint your pretty face
But it won't hide who you are
You tell me things are different now
But you're the same to me anyhow
(You are)

You're barking up the wrong tree
You're barking up the wrong tree
You're barking

Barking up the wrong tree
(Barking up the wrong tree)
Nobody knows but me
(Nobody knows but me)
Look but you never see
Barking up the wrong tree

Barking up the wrong tree
Barking, barking, barking
Barking up the wrong tree
Barking, barking, barking
