The Outdoor Type

I always had a roof above me, I always paid the rent

And I've never set foot inside a tent

I couldn't build a fire to save my life

I lied about being the outdoor type

Well, I've never slept out underneath the stars

The closest that I came to that was one time in 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 that 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

Never owned a sleeping bag, let alone a mountain bike

No, I can't go away with you on a rock-climbing weekend

What if something's on TV that's never shown again?

It's just as well I'm not invited, as 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.
