"Am I Here Yet? (Return To Sender)" lyrics

"Am I Here Yet? (Return To Sender)"

There's got to be more to this, the future
There's got to be more to this
Sitting around in my imagination
Using someone else's logic for loose change
Where the speed of light isn't always fast enough
So could you hurry up and get another life, if you please

You wear a suit, I wear a smile, you yellow taxi the 4 minute mile
I'll be your driver if you'll be my ride
Your financial advisor, me and my hitchhikers guide

Wrote a letter to the future, asking for directions
It came back to me, return to sender, there I go
Am I here yet, am I here yet, am I?
There's got to be more to this

My emotional bends are doing somersaults
My head is where my feet should be, on the ground
I chose the path of most resistance
Had to be different, made my mark but then I crossed the lines
You read between

Pardon you, oh excuse me, you left your manners at the pleasantries
Blind ambition is so hard to please
Look at me, I've been told I'm exceptionally ordinary

Wrote a letter to the future asking for directions
It came back to me, return to sender
There I go, am I here yet
There's got to be more to this, there's got to be more to this

Straight ahead, always forward, change direction
Nobody's looking, draw a circle and stand in the middle
Touch the sides, they're never ending, they're never ending

Wrote a letter to the future asking for directions
It came back to me return to sender
There I go, am I here yet

The future, there's got to be more to this

Don't wanna be rich, don't wanna be poor, don't wanna to be a bitch
I'm not asking for more, you'd settle for less, I'm happy like this
Don't you wanna get a life

Don't wanna be a victim of fashion, a plastic sensation
A hippie chick coke fiend, higher than an astronaut
Lower than a politician, leave your name and number in the bin, the has been
