I got two point five offspring and my wife is a beauty queen
gotta four bedroom 2 car garage middle class suburban thing
Gotta job that pays me well enough I can retire when I'm fifty-five
gotta a sweet young thing I see twice a week
kinda nice to tell them little white lies
then one day I came home early feelin' guilty tried to make things right
found my old lady with another man and I pulled out a butcher knife
and now I'm Somewhere in the Middle of Nowhere
got the bulls running after me
Ya I'm Somewhere in the Middle of Nowhere
and nowhere ya, ya, is no place to be.

Now I sleep when the sun is shinin' and I run on the moonless nights
I sleep with one eye open lookin' over my shoulder and that ain't right
All I got are the clothes I'm wearin' all I really needs a brand new life
Kinda wish I'd stayed at work that day and just gone on livin' a lie.
There's an anger that's deep inside me that keeps cuttin' like a knife so deep
I'm a stranger in my own nightmare and that's gonna be the end of me.
and now I'm Somewhere in the Middle of Nowhere
got the bulls running after me
Ya I'm Somewhere in the Middle of Nowhere
and nowhere ya, ya, is no place to be.

Now don't get yourself too comfortable in the life that you think is free
'cuz in a blink of an eye it can turn on a dime 
and you'll be runnin' down the road like me.
I ain't tryin' to be no preacher, I ain't preachin' what the Good Book says.
I'm just tellin' you my story and how I'm probably gonna end up dead.
But, there's a reason you're still listening there's a reason you can't turn away
If you don't watch out yourself son it'll be your turn to say.....
that I'm Somewhere in the Middle of Nowhere
got the bulls running after me
Ya I'm Somewhere in the Middle of Nowhere
and nowhere ya, ya, is no place to be.
