I Don't Know What to Do With Myself

I've had to go to mass, thank you
I've tried to be a married man
I've learned to fake my smile
I've been sincere and I've been sensible
I've changed the place of my bed
I've done comedy, I've done drama
I've heard every voice that calls me
I've been good and I've had a bad reputation

I've been ethical, unfriendly, poetic, fanatical
Apathetic, methodical, shameless, chaotic
I've read Paulo Coelho, I've listened to all advice
I've preached the gospel
I even thought I was old

I've done so many things I don't even remember
What I was against or in favor of
What used to give me pleasure, now only gives me pain
I never learned what love is

And I heard a voice saying: There's no reason
You're always changing, you don't change anymore
And since I'm becoming more and more the same
I don't know what to do with myself

I've cried so much out of resentment
I've made a storm in a teacup
I've tried my luck abroad, I've learned I have no flair
I've voted for the tucano, I've been an ovo-lacto-vegetarian
Insane, I've been saintly and profane
I've done things in front of you and behind your back

I've studied theology and no longer believe in what I used to believe
I've suffered from claustrophobia, stubbornness, and kleptomania
I've tasted, smoked, drank, quit
Signed, traveled, caught
I've suffered, deceived, fled, admitted
I've gone and come back, affirmed and lied

And with all this falsehood
My lies have become truths
I've had everything I wanted
And I've settled for scraps

And I heard a voice saying: There's no reason
You're always changing, you don't change anymore
And since I'm becoming more and more the same
I don't know what to do with myself

I've been in jail, I've had money
I've tripped up many a big shot
I've given my opinion and been wrong
I've never admitted to anyone that I was wrong
Without a degree or salary, I've been a majority shareholder
I've written so many names on my arm
I've filled every space

I've been a psychologist, an astrologer, a layman, a winemaker
I've been an alcoholic, an athlete
I've been obese and I've dieted
I've spat and told people to go to hell
The place where I work today
And now I only distract myself
By making a Uruguayan rock version

And I heard a voice saying: There's no reason
You're always changing, you don't change anymore
And since I'm becoming more and more the same
I don't know what to do with myself

And I heard a voice saying: There's no reason
You're always changing, you don't change anymore
And since I'm becoming more and more the same
I don't know what to do with myself
