Barriers

I'm big and red and kind of look like a pitcher
And I'm pretty intimidating
But that doesn't meant that I need to have the trouble that I do
When it comes to dating
Or daily life, but I try
To do everything I can to be like you, but
It's just that, when I see a wall
I just don't know what to do

See, there might be a door, there might be a table
There might be a drawer, there might be some labels
There might be a nursery or doctor inside
But there's just one inclination I've got to hide

Cuz when I see a wall, I just can't see
And a weight comes on top of me
And the glass of my pitcher, it wants to break
And the liquid inside me gives a big shake
And I want to change, but I don't know how
And every time that I go through with my urges now
It hurts me deep, but I can't fight it
When I see a wall, all I can do is break through and cry out

Oh yeah
Oh yeah
But that's not what I feel inside
I feel oh no
Oh no
I'm the Kool-aid Man
Cannot cool it, man but
I'm tired
Of doing the same thing, like, every time
It's like every time I see a wall
I can't do anything else, anything else
Oh
This is a miserable existence
A miserable existence
But I can't help my existence

When I break through the wall
It always makes me liable
For the damage, and I've so many bills I have to pay
And I have to pay them off, like, every single day
And I don't know what to do - I mean, there aren't many careers
For a guy who looks like a pitcher with a face on it
And I don't know what I can do
But I'm sick and tired of this

Oh, oh
I try to help myself
But I can't, 'cuz the only thing I can do
Is do what I always

I always break the wall
And this means I break the law
But I want to break this habit
I want to break it like a slab of
Concrete ideas of how to self-improve
Are things that I try to get, but that I can never seem to use
So instead, I just walk by myself
Alone on the sidewalk and cry myself
To sleep at night, and my red tears stain my pillowcase
Because all I can is break down the walls and say

Oh yeah
Oh yeah
But that's not what I feel inside
I feel oh no
Oh no
I'm the Kool-aid Man
Cannot cool it, man but
I'm tired
Of doing the same thing, like, every time
It's like every time I see a wall
I can't do anything else
Oh
This is a miserable existence
But I can't help my existence
This is a miserable existence
But I can't help my existence
I say

Oh yeah
Oh yeah
But that's not what I feel inside
I feel oh no
Oh no
I'm the Kool-aid Man
Cannot cool it, man but
I'm tired
Of doing the same thing, like, every time
It's like every time I see a wall
I can't do anything else
Oh
This is a miserable existence
A miserable existence
This is a miserable existence
A miserable existence
This is a miserable existence
A miserable existence
But I can't help my existence
