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

[00:00.48] I keep lookin' for a place to fit in
[00:05.45] Where I can speak my mind
[00:10.52] And I've been tryin' hard to find the people
[00:15.61] That I won't leave behind
[00:20.52] They say I got brains, but they ain't doin' me no good
[00:27.69] I wish they could
[00:31.27] Each time things start to happen again
[00:35.95] I think I got somethin' good goin' for myself
[00:40.35] But what goes wrong?
[00:43.71] Sometimes I feel very sad
[00:48.75] Sometimes I feel very sad
[00:53.80] Sometimes I feel very sad
[00:59.26]
[01:04.49] I guess I just wasn't made for these times
[01:14.76] Every time I get the inspiration
[01:19.68] To go change things around
[01:25.04] No one wants to help me look for places
[01:30.18] Where new things might be found
[01:35.32] Where can I turn when my fair weather friends cop out?
[01:42.35] What's it all about?
[01:45.96] Each time things start to happen again
[01:50.81] I think I got somethin' good goin' for myself
[01:55.25] But what goes wrong?
[01:58.85] Sometimes I feel very sad
[02:03.63] Sometimes I feel very sad
[02:08.88] Sometimes I feel very sad
[02:13.84]
[02:19.44] I guess I just wasn't made for these times
[02:26.36]
[02:40.49] I guess I just wasn't made for these times
[02:45.72] I guess I just wasn't made for these times
[02:50.74] I guess I just wasn't made for these times
[02:55.98] I guess I just wasn't made for these times
[03:01.05] I guess I just wasn't made for these times
[03:06.53] I guess I just wasn't made for these times
[03:11.23] I guess I just-
[03:13.68]
