New town, a different attitude

But I didn’t think that it would be this way

Thought maybe the world had grown up

And is it too much to ask to just leave me be

And they’re shouting out of their cars

They’re calling out across the street

But I can’t let them show that it gets to me

Just want to flip them off and swear under my breath

When was it a crime to be different?

The world doesn’t need another prick like you

And I haven’t got it cut in ten years so don’t ask

Go get yourself a better hobby

Thought I’d left behind the taunts and discourtesy

With the bullies at school

But I guess the world’s still full of jerks like them

This gag is getting old

‘Cause I’ve had it since my teen years

Don’t think you’re being original

And I think it’s sad you have to rip on me

Just to make yourself feel bigger than an ant

Get yourself a better hobby

Get a life

Stay out of mine
