Lyrics and translation
Original
I was born a little sad, never knew what I had.
Mom and Dad let it slide.
No wonder I'm never satisfied.
I sweated, I swooned, I howled at the moon, tied myself to the tides.
No wonder I'm never satisfied.
I'm high in the morning, high in the afternoon, high in the evening.
When I'm sleeping,
I'm with you.
Welcome old, welcome mad. I'm filthy and I'm flat.
Now ain't that the truth?
No wonder I'm so confused.
I only care about the cat, some of this, a little of that.
Fat chance I'll sing the blues.
No wonder I'm so confused.
I'm high in the morning, high in the afternoon, high in the evening.
When I'm sleeping, I'm with you
