i wanna stay home

when you need someone

and there's no one there

there is always the nine o'clock train

to take you out somewhere

i take the train in town

like i did for years

there is only seven more blocks

i could walk from here

i wanna stay home

i wanna stay home right here

i wanna stay home today

i wanna stay

it's only six o'clock

when my day begins

there is always my alarm clock

to wake me up again

when i realize the weight

that's firmly on my shoulders

i just try and find the place

i can take a walk on my blind side

when these memories fade

in my ripe old age

please remember my dear. i wanna stay home

i wanna stay home right here

i wanna stay home today

i wanna stay

i wanna stay

i wanna stay

i wanna stay

i wanna stay
