Fat Lip Lyrics
Storming through the party like my name was El Niño,
When I'm hanging out drinking in the back of an El Camino.
As a kid, was a skid, and no one knew me by name.
Trashed my own house party, 'cause nobody came.
I know I'm not the one you thought you knew back in high school.
Never going, never showing up when we had to.
Attention that we crave, don't tell us to behave.
I'm sick of always hearing "act your age".
I don't want to waste my time,
Become another casualty of society.
I'll never fall in line,
Become another victim of your conformity and back down.
Because you don't
Know us at all, we laugh when old people fall,
But what would you expect with a conscience so small?
Heavy metal and mullets, it's how we were raised.
Maiden and Priest were the gods that we praised.
'Cause we like having fun at other people's expense and
Cutting people down is just a minor offense then.
It's none of your concern, I guess I'll never learn,
I'm sick of being told to wait my turn.
I don't want to waste my time,
Become another casualty of society.
I'll never fall in line,
Become another victim of your conformity and back down.
Don't count on me
To let you know when.
Don't count on me,
I'll do it again.
Don't count on me.
It's the point you're missing.
Don't count on me,
'Cause I'm not listening.
Well I'm a
No good nick lower middle class brat, backpacked,
And I don't give a shit about nothing.
You be standing on the corner talking all that kufuffin.
Well you don't make sense from all the gas you be huffing.
'Cause if the egg don't stain, you'll be ringing off the hook,
You're on the hit list, wanted in the telephone book.
I like songs with distortion, to drink in proportion.
The dentist* said my mom should've had an abortion.
I don't want to waste my time,
Become another casualty of society.
I'll never fall in line,
Become another victim of your conformity and back down.
(Waste my time with them) casualty of society.
(Waste my time with them) victim of your conformity and back down.
[* CD cover says "doctor" here, as well as heard in some versions of the song. But in the CD version and in the "Fat Lip" video they clearly sing "dentist".]
