This here's a song about the things you don't find in nature
|
This here's a tale about conditions of the head
|
At one time I wanted to expand my education but
|
Now I'll make more money if I dye my hair instead.
|
|
'Cause I've gotta be more punk, and forget about writing love songs
|
And even though I'm a middle class white Canadian
|
God knows I've been done wrong
|
'Cause I'm a fake punk! I'm a fake punk!
|
I'll even use a dirty word, I'll even write a mean song,
|
I'll even take a mean picture
|
'Cause I've got the hair for it!
|
|
I've always tried to dig myself out of the sewer
|
I've always strived to be a little bit more well-read
|
But oh no! Here comes that rock press interviewer so,
|
I'll just look real tough and say fuck a lot instead
|
|
I'd be alright if I could just hang out with my girlfriend
|
I'd be just fine if they would close down all the bars
|
And maybe one day I'll join a protest against smoking
|
But when it comes to sincere angst you can just
|
Leave me the fuck alone!
