Who's Afraid of Thomas Wolfe?

I changed my name, I had it made
 I sold my soul
 And I never got paid
 When it's one long line after another
 And you can't get a green card
 And all you want is to lie with your lover
 But distance makes it too hard
 What you don't know is
 You can never go back, never go back
 You can never go home again
 And it's one headache after another
 And you can't get a green light
 And all you want is to lie with your lover
 And make everything alright
 What you don't know is
 You can never go back, never go back
 You can never go home again
 And I'm going home despite
 that Thomas Wolfe was right
 I'm going home despite
 that Thomas Wolfe was right
 I dreamed I jumped
 I spoke to God
 I overslept
 And I got fired from my job
