Old Bold Solid Gold

What am I doing?
What do I care?
I lack inspiration
I’m sick of this chair
I cant find a reason
Now my temperature’s high
I gotta find something
that money can’t buy

I lack motivation
I can’t find a test
I sleep then I wake, and the world’s still a mess
I’ve entered a new phase
but there are things I can’t do
I gotta find a new way to take a different view

I know (I know)
Yes I know (I know)
I’m not gonna break
I’m not gonna fake it
I know (I know)
Yes I know (I know)
I can’t change the game
and I’ll always be the same yeah!

I’m a controlled man
I’m an old bold solid gold man
I’m not a sold man
I’m used to doing what I can
I’m not a cold man
I’m an old bold solid gold man
I’m a controlled man
And this was never part of the plan

What am I thinking?
What do I know?
Why am I reluctant
To put on a show
Why do I need to be a certain way
Will I be lucky
On each rising day

I’ve got lots more time
To do even less
I drink cos I want to
I have to confess
I try to be civil
Shower two times a day
I try not to swear
When I have nothing to say

I know (I know)
Yes I know (I know)
I’m not standing still
Cos I love to chill
I don’t know (I don’t know)
I don’t know (I don’t know)
If I’m supposed to change
Or am I just feeling strange yeah!

I’m a controlled man
I’m an old bold solid gold man
I’m not a sold man
I’m used to doing what I can
I’m not a cold man
I’m an old bold solid gold man
I’m a controlled man
And this was never part of the plan

Yeaheeyeafyeah

Yeaheeyeafyeah 

Where am I going?
Well I’m not going far
I’ve found my Nirvana
Where I can play my guitar
I live with a passion
To keep my ending at bay
And I won’t stop dreaming
Until my life ebbs away

I wanna be liked
I wanna be free
I wanna be loved, like I love my family
I’d like to shout and scream
Cos I have plenty to say
I wanna find peace of mind, at the end of the day

But I know (I know)
Yes I know (I know)
That the worlds been torn apart
By men with evil hearts
But I know (I know)
Yes I know (I know)
Gonna live my way
And I’ll love my days yeah!

I’m a controlled man
I’m an old bold solid gold man
I’m not a sold man
I’m used to doing what I can
I’m not a cold man
I’m an old bold solid gold man
I’m a controlled man
And this was never part of the plan

I’m a controlled man

An old bold solid gold man
