This place is a zoo

Verse:

He said he can't decide
I shake my head to say
Everythings just great
Oh I just can't remember
I just can't remember
Pre-CHORUS:
Raised in Carolina (she says)
I'm not like that
Trying to remind her
When we go back
CHORUS:
I say the right things
But act the wrong way
I like it right here
But I cannot stay
I watched the TV
Forget what I'm told
I am too young
And they are too old
I'll make it you see
I'm ever so pleased
Pretend to be nice
So I can be mean
I missed the last bus
I'll take the next train
I try, but you see
It's hard to explain

The Bm doesn't sound completely right on the prechorus but the rest is spot on.
