3. Sixpence None The Richer: I Just Wasn't Made For These Times
(Originally performed by Brian Wilson / The Beach Boys)
 

I keep looking for a place to fit in
where I can speak my mind
and I've been trying hard to find the people
that I won't leave behind

they say I got brains
but they ain't doing me no good
I wish they could

each time things start to happen again
I think I got something good goin' for myself
but what goes wrong

sometimes I feel very sad
sometimes I feel very sad
sometimes I feel very sad

I guess I just wasn't made for these times

every time I get the inspiration
to go change things around
no one wants to help me look for places
where new things might be found

where can I turn when my fair weather friends cop out
what's it all about

each time things start to happen again
I think I got something good goin' for myself
but what goes wrong

sometimes I feel very sad
sometimes I feel very sad
sometimes I feel very sad

I guess I just wasn't made for these times

I guess I just wasn't made for these times
I guess I just wasn't made for these times
I guess I just wasn't made for these times
I guess I just wasn't made for these times

The band's song comment::
»Pet Sounds is a masterpiece of production, arrangement, and songwriting, and the genius of Brian Wilson sits at its core. Both the album and the man have had a tremendous influence on pop music and have given the whole world something to aspire to. Pet Sounds was, is, and always will be a classic. It is an honor to pay tribute to Brian by recording a version of "I Just Wasn't Made For These Times." We hope you enjoy it.«
