Goo Goo Dolls - Eyes Wide Open
from the album "A Boy Named Goo"

I'm a fortunate son, of a fortunate son,
Living large on the wrong side of town.
Too many friends and the fun never ends,
Drinkin' and hangin' around.

I wanna' own the world, I wanna' swallow it whole.
At least I could kick it all down.
I wanna' kick it all down.

Eyes wide open, I can't see.
Eyes wide open, what you mean.
Eyes wide open, I can't seem to be.

I don't take the bus, and I never walked too far,
The furthest I got was my own backyard.
A fist full of cash that somebody else earned,
They sent me some more when it all got burned.

I wanna' take control, I wanna' make it all mine.
At least I could kick it all down.
I wanna' kick it all down.

I'll get what I want when I make up my mind,
I'm turnin' you inside out.
I wanna' own the world, I wanna' swallow it whole.
I think I'll just kick it all down.
I wanna' kick it all down
