Spinning My Wheels (L) [Live]

High school was a drag
All my teachers just a nag
It's no wonder I couldn't wait to jump the fence
Thought I had a solid plan
So I left my home and ran
And I've been running on this treadmill ever since
I been going it alone
With these muscles of my own
But I'm compromising my own true ideals
Though my pals all envy me
Cause I'm going places and doing things
They can't see that I'm just
Spinning my wheels

Spinning my wheels, pouring on the gas
Tearing up the road, going nowhere fast
Without a course of action, I'm just like the flimflam man without a deal
Tearing up the field like I'm racing down hill
But I know I'm just standing still
Who am I kidding
I'm just spinning my wheels

Moved from one place to the next
Trying to keep me out of debt
Too bad I never worked out my own designs
Working at this nowhere job
And for the money I've been robbed
Without a future I'm just wasting all my time
Hard to say what might have been
If I would have known back then
But now regrets and disappointments are all I feel
Instead of confidence and wealth
And feeling good about myself
I'm just grinding on and spinning my wheels

Spinning my wheels, pouring on the gas
Burning up the road, going nowhere fast
Hard to differentiate between the fantasy and the real
Tearing up the field like I'm racing down hill
But I know I'm just standing still
Who am I kidding
I'm just spinning my wheels

Spinning my wheels, pouring on the gas
Tearing up the road, going nowhere fast
Without a course of action, I'm just like the flimflam man without a deal
Tearing up the field like I'm racing down hill
But I know I'm just standing still
Who am I kidding
I'm just spinning my wheels
