[00:00.00]Don't Wanna Be ...
[00:00.00]Don't Wanna Be Here "Ordinary Days" soundtrack
[00:05.30]I grew up in like, the middle of nowhere
[00:08.30]And I swore I would never go back.
[00:12.45]My hometown was like the suburb of a suburb
[00:15.45]I actually lived on a cul-de-sac.
[00:19.45]That’s literally a road that goes nowhere.
[00:22.45]That’s the definition of dead end.
[00:25.45]I said, “I can’t wait to learn to do a three-point-turn”
[00:29.30]Because I don’t wanna be here.
[00:33.30]In four long years, I finished up with high school.
[00:37.20]Graduated top of my class. Thank you!
[00:40.20]But in college I discovered that devising my own major
[00:43.50]Was a bureaucratic pain in the ass.
[00:46.45]I thought I’d recontextualize Sartre
[00:49.45]But could only register for first-year French. Ha!
[00:54.20]Well, you should’ve heard my mom when I dropped the bomb
[00:56.50]And said, “I don’t wanna be here
[01:00.00]No, I don’t wanna be here.”
[01:02.20]Now, I am not a negative person
[01:05.00]It’s just that I’ve always known that I had places to go
[01:09.00]Dreams to fulfill and ideas to discover
[01:12.30]They’re just never where I am.
[01:18.00]So anyway, back at school
[01:20.00]I waited five semesters
[01:21.45]Till I could snag one of their random degrees
[01:25.00]I moved down south, ‘cause I heard everyone was hiring
[01:28.45]And they were. At the Applebee’s.
[01:32.00]They fired me, like, three weeks later.
[01:36.00]My sublet promptly, whoops, fell through.
[01:39.00]As I checked into a hotel, I said, “It’s just as well.
[01:42.30]Because I don’t wanna be here.
[01:44.00]No, I don’t wanna be here.”
[01:47.00]And I, I was not a negative person
[01:50.00]So I packed up my bags, though I had no place to go
[01:53.40]I opened a map and said, “Show me my future.
[01:57.30]"Cause it isn’t where I am.”
[02:01.00]I finally got a job at some hum-drum office
[02:04.30]Like everyone right out of school does
[02:08.00]I sat there at my cubicle every day
[02:12.00]Sending faxes, and that’s what my life was
[02:14.30]Oh, I went back home and said to my parents,
[02:18.30]“I know what I’ve got to do.”
[02:22.30]And since I am a dork
[02:25.45]I moved to New York
[02:32.45]And I started grad school.
[02:37.30]I really don’t wanna be here.
