Elvis Costello's All Grown Up
(snipped)
Quote:
All grown up
And you don't care anymore
And you hate all the people that you used to adore
And you despise all the rumours and lies of the life you led before

Did I hear you right?
You're feeling hounded and pushed around
You want to just lay down and die
If all of this life has been such a big disappointment to you
Why don't you stop blaming some guy
And go give the next one a try
I sing that when I'm miserable, and wonder why.
Then realise I'm feeling hounded & pushed around
Same as in Oliver's Army also by Costello.
Because of the line, "And I would rather be anywhere else, than here today."

Happily I haven't sung either since I started work in February.
