Scotty Sire - Mister Glassman Lyrics

Let's paint a picture you're in class
The teacher writes the notes too fast
And there's a boy who sits in back
Who's too afraid to raise his hand
And ask if she can slow it down
So nervously he looks around
Can't bare to stand out in the crowd
And he's only gotten half the notes now
The school bell rings and he feels deflated
He looks at his hand, he should've raised it
His biggest fear, he should've faced it
And now he's lost inside the pages
He might be there but you'd never notice
Got a lot to say but he's soft spoken
He's a book that just isn't open
A tiny ripple in a stormy ocean

Glassman, Mister Glassman
Glassman
Mister Glassman
He's really soft spoken
You never notice glass unless it's broken
Mister Glassman
He's really soft spoken
You never notice glass unless it's broken
Mister Glassman

A few years later when now it's prom season
Mister glass isn't going unless he has a reason
There's a cutie in his class that he likes a lot
But he's afraid to ask because they've never talked
Plus if she says yes what's he gonna do?
Doesn't have a car, dude, he's screwed, he doesn't feel cool
He's too subdued and he's scared to meet her parents too
Boohoo, just another chance he blew
'Cause there's way too many things going on in his head
And he's always in his head thinking too far ahead
Could've gone to prom but instead he lays in bed
Thinkin' of all the things that he left unsaid till he's red
Sorry Mister Glass, the world has a way
But now I'm sure you've heard many people say
You miss every opportunity you don't take
Don't be shy kid, make your own fate

Glassman, Mister Glassman
Glassman
Mister Glassman
He's really soft spoken
You never notice glass unless it's broken
Mister Glassman
He's really soft spoken
You never notice glass unless it's broken
Mister Glassman

Now Mister Glass is older and he's doing just fine
Yeah, he made it through high school even though he was shy
He's got a group of good friends and his future is bright
And he still gets sad but he's happy with his life
Remember when he didn't ask the cutie to prom?
Well, now he's got a couple kids and they're calling her mom, man
Remember when he couldn't raise his hand in class?
Well now he's up on stage in front of fans rappin' fast
But he still gets scared and he still gets nervous
'Cause you gotta fear the waves if you wanna go surfin'
Nothin' is for certain like does cursive have a purpose?
Was it worth it that you learned it? Probably not
I don't know, I digress
But the point I'm trying stress is that we're all just made of glass
Even when we're at our best, we can break, we can split
Or disappear or lose our temper
Even if you think you're bullet proof, I am glass and so are you

Glassman, Mister Glassman
Glassman
Mister Glassman
He's really soft spoken
You never notice glass unless i'ts broken
Mister Glassman
He's really soft spoken
You never notice glass unless it's broken

It's hard to get by when you're feelin' so shy
You gotta keep on movin' just a step at a time
Mister Glassman
He's really soft spoken
You never notice glass unless it's broken, Mister

Shooby doo wop
Shooby doo way
Shooby dooby dooby doo
Woppity wop (Mister Glassman)
He's really soft spoken
(Mister Glassman) Mister Glassman
(Glassman)
