About I Just Wasn't Made For These Times

"I Just Wasn't Made for These Times" is a song by the Beach Boys from their album Pet Sounds. It is the eleventh song on the album. It is the first song to use a keyboard-controlled variation on the theremin - later named the Electro-Theremin or Tannerin - in a rock record. Shortly after this track was recorded, Brian Wilson used the Tannerin on the "Good Vibrations" track. Wilson stated: "It's about a guy who was crying out because he thought he was too advanced, and that he'd eventually have to leave people behind. .

I Just Wasn't Made For These Times Lyrics

[00:00.51] I keep looking for a place to fit in where I can speak my mind
[00:10.65] I've been trying hard to find the people that I won't leave behind
[00:20.44] They say I got brains, but they ain't doing me no good
[00:27.48] I wish they could
[00:30.85] Each time things start to happen again
[00:35.79] I think I got something good goin' for myself
[00:40.22] But what goes wrong?
[00:43.78] Sometimes I feel very sad
[00:48.53] Sometimes I feel very sad
[00:53.58] Sometimes I feel very sad
[00:59.07]
[01:04.05] I guess I just wasn't made for these times
[01:14.63] Every time I get the inspiration to go change things around
[01:24.77] No one wants to help me look for places where new things might be found
[01:35.37] Where can I turn when my fair weather friends cop out, what's it all about?
[01:45.55] Each time things start to happen again
[01:50.26] I think I got something good goin' for myself
[01:54.76] But what goes wrong?
[01:58.05] Sometimes I feel very sad
[02:03.16] Sometimes I feel very sad (can't find nothin' I can put my heart and soul into)
[02:08.13] Sometimes I feel very sad (can't find nothin' I can put my heart and soul into)
[02:13.94]
[02:18.79] I guess I just wasn't made for these times
[02:26.38]
[02:39.94] I guess I just wasn't made for these times
[02:46.35] I guess I just wasn't made for these times
[02:50.04] I guess I just wasn't made for these times
[02:55.48] I guess I just wasn't made for these times
[03:00.03] I guess I just wasn't made for these times
[03:05.22] I guess I just wasn't made for these times
[03:09.64]
