The Raspberries

The Raspberries were an American pop rock band formed in 1970 from Cleveland, Ohio. They had a run of success in the early 1970s music scene with their pop rock sound, which AllMusic later described as featuring "exquisitely crafted melodies and achingly gorgeous harmonies." The members were known for their clean-cut public image, with short-hair and matching suits, which brought them teenybopper attention as well as scorn from some mainstream media outlets as "uncool".

My old man says success is the measure
Maybe so but I don't need the pressure
Not right now cause I got enough

Teachers tell me I don't lack the brains
Ask if I'm under some kind of strain
Well that's too much and I really can't take it

They all say that I'm not getting younger
And I'd better make up my mind
Man, you'd think I was committin' some kinda crime

'Cause I don't know what I want
I don't know what I want
I don't know what I want
But I want it now

When I talk they just don't wanna listen
Then they push me to make some decisions
I can't wait and they wonder why

Everyone says I've got no direction
They want me sent to a house of correction
That's too much when I really can't take it

When I try to relieve my frustration
Seems like nothing I can do is right
My mind is aching and I'm sick of being so uptight

'Cause I don't know what I want
I don't know what I want
I don't know what I want
But I want it now

All my life they complained that I'm just a dreamer
But I can't make a move when they wound my pride
When they say it must stop they push and pull me
I don't know what to do
And it's like I'm just talking through a cell door
Some one give me a clue

'Cause I don't know what I want
I don't know what I want
I don't know what I want
But I want it now
I want it now
Oh, give it to me
Oh, yeah
