You can’t talk from your blinded mind
Running in circles you're out of time
Disillusion, confusion I don’t care
If you can’t take it get out of here
You’re a bat
You’re a rat
You’re a cat in a hat
I’m allergic to a copy cat
I don’t really wanna be you, If you really wanna be me
I’m allergic to a copy cat
Cat! I’m allergic to a copy cat
(Bark with me now)
Sideman
Alright listen up, cats like you rule the world
Scratch my eye, aint gonna die.
I cant tell from a bat to a rat or a gnat to non- fat
But I know you copy cat
Don't tell me you know what you want
Cause I’m warning you
Buddy can’t believe
He’s not foolin’ blue
Realize materialize who you are
COPY CAT

WHY CANT I BE ME?

Why don’t I know that my words can’t control all the things that I feel yet the words that I say only cling to the air I breath.
Why can’t I be me?
Mulling and whining
And spend all my time
Only all that I ask is why can’t I be me?

GENRE: PUNK ROCK
01:04

I’m thinking to myself is this really what it’s all about?
Didn’t make it as a pop band
All well change your name sounds like a plan
“Genre: Punk Rock” will never die
Drunk college children all pay the same
Manager says swear on stage
Spit beer
Cut your sleeves
Grow your hair
Black coat
White shoes
Black hat
That’s a wrap
“Genre: Punk Rock” will never die
I thought I’d seen it all before
Weakest of weak will not endure
I smell sheep in wolf’s clothing
But then again don’t all we know
They’ll give it up when the cheques don’t come in

WHAT YOU THINK IS COOL
00:49

|
I don't like the rules you live by
Your car
Your job
Your house
I think I’m getting bored
I won’t see to the rules you live by
You can’t change what’s mine
What you think is cool
I don’t think is cool
l
I’ll speak my mind with a righteous rhyme
This time I won’t behave
What you think is cool I do not think is cool
I’ll speak my mind with a righteous rhyme
This time I think I have relit the dying flame

Update
From Time To Time
They know what you like
I Wonder Why
Template
I gotta know, why they know, the things they know, and why they really care
I think you wanna be off
Useless buttons
Priceless Repercussions
What do I know
Not much
But that guy way up in that booth
Way up there
Deciding what I like or what I would like
Can back off
I wanna be off
