Joan Jett and the Blackhearts Frustrated song lyrics

(Joan Jett/Kenny Laguna)

Daddy's got his beer and he's glued to the television

An' Mamma's in the kitchen

With the dishes and the pots and pans

An' I be in my bedroom

Contemplatin' all the living I'm missin'

Just waiting for the day

I won't have to follow someone else's plans

I'm frustrated, my hands are tied

I'm frustrated, my brains are fried

I'm frustrated, no place to hide

Cause they see what they wanna see

An' no one ever knows that I'm lonely

I've got rockets in my sockets

But I got no place to go

An' in my dreams I find my one and only

Then I wake up in the morning

And reality really blows

I said, I'm frustrated, my hands are tied

I'm frustrated, my brains are fried

I'm frustrated, no place to hide

Don't do this, don't do that

Don't go out, come right back

Say no more, such a bore

You can go around in circles, an never find the perfect lover

Steal a glance but never take a chance

So ya stay at square one

Ya make a big mistake

When ya try to tell a book by its cover

Yea know I got a lot but I'd sure like to have a little fun

Fun, that's right

I said, I'm frustrated, my hands are tied

I'm frustrated, my brains are fried

I'm frustrated, no place to hide
