(Sometimes I Feel So) Uninspired

Sometimes I feel so uninspired

Sometimes I feel like giving up

Sometimes I feel so very tired

Sometimes I feel like I've had enough

Sometimes you feel like you've been hired

Sometimes you feel like you've been bought

Sometimes you feel like your room's been wired

Sometimes you feel like you've been caught

But don't let it get you down, no, no

There is no reason for not failing

You've got to smile and turn the other cheek

So today you might be done

By tomorrow you'll be sailing

And you won't even hear these words I speak

Some people want to be so desired

Some people can't stand the light of day

Someone laughing, while someone is crying

And old folks are watching the close of the day

But sometimes I feel like my head is spinning

The hunger and pain is all I see

I don't know who's losing

And I don't know who's winning

Hardships and trouble are following me

But don't let it get you down

There is every reason for not failing

You've got to smile and turn the other cheek

So today you might be done

By tomorrow you'll be sailing

And you won't even hear these words I speak

Some people want to be so desired

Some people can't stand the light of day

Someone is laughing, while someone is crying

Old folks are watching the close of the day

But sometimes I feel like my head is spinning

Hunger and pain is all I see

I don't know who's losing

And I don't care who's winning

Hardships and trouble are following me
