The Outdoor Type

Always had a roof above me, always paid the rent
And I never set foot inside a tent
I couldn't build a fire to save my life
I lied about being the outdoor type

I never slept out underneath the stars
The closest that I came to that, was one time my car
Broke down for an hour in the suburbs at night
I lied about being the outdoor type

Too scared to let you know, you knew what you were looking for
I lied until I fit the bill, God bless the great indoors
I lied about being the outdoor type
I never owned a sleeping bag, let alone a mountain bike

I can't go away with you on a rock-climbing weekend
What if something's on tv and it's never shown again?
Just as well, I'm not invited, I'm afraid of heights
I lied about being the outdoor type

Never learned to swim, can't grow a beard or even fight
I lied about being the outdoor type
