I'm Cold

I go outside and it's cold I walk downtown and it's cold I do everything that I'm told The people I meet, so hooked on defeat And if it's not one thing, then it's ten I shouldn't have to be told So I just keep moving around 'Cause I'm cold I picked up the pieces that break And try not to make a mistake And sometimes I'm sick when I wake I jump in my car and go to a bar Because it's so much warmer in there For my decrepit soul Then I get back to moving around 'Cause I'm cold All wound up All broken down Animal person Carnival clown The only thing that hurts Is knowing it gets worse As it goes I work every day till I'm tired Emotionally uninspired And some think I'll maybe get fired But what else is new You do what you do Because you're told to It's something of which I'm really not yet quite sold But it must just be a problem with me 'Cause I'm cold --- I'm Cold - Guided by Voices
