[Verse 1]
I have nothing but questions
I need answers, those would fill me up
I know when I'm being catered to!
I know when I'm being catered to!
I will not settle for the lowest common denominator!
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Hello my friend, we've been waiting for you for a long time
We have reason to believe that your soul is just like ours
Did you ever get the feeling you were just a little different?
Well, here's our web page, you've finally found a home
[Chorus 1]
Good people give good advice
Get a job, eat an apple, it'll work itself out
It's a phase
It's chemistry
It's your own fault
Well don't listen to us
We're just people too
[Verse 2]
I've been waiting all my life
I've been waiting for some real good p***
Something with meaning, something fulfilling
I'd like to make my shame count for something
[Pre-Chorus 2]
I feel so empty trying to explain this
His name is William Onyeabor, he's from the 70s
And when I wake up in the morning, there are people sleeping on my couch
Well, I'll have something to say about that one
[Chorus 2]
Free people give free advice
Let go of the pain, let go of the fear
But if I let go of that
What will still be here
Will I find out
That I am people too?
[Outro]
Should I say that one more time?
Um, yeah, I mean, uh, the intent was to sort of go back to these periods and, and revisit them a little bit, especially with Teens of Style. You know, with Teens of Denial it was sort of contemporaneous when I was writing it. You know, and what I was experiencing at the time. And, uh, I guess I was just out of my teenage years when I was writing things for Teens of Denial. (...?) really feel like anything had changed. So, um, yeah I guess (...?) two of those items together (...?) what I'm doing in the present tense
I'm sorry, will I have to say that again?
The connection must be bad. Um, can you try one more time?
Ah, um, when I was starting out, I, uh, recorded vocals in my car sometimes, uh, just for the sake of privacy
I have nothing but questions
I need answers, those would fill me up
I know when I'm being catered to!
I know when I'm being catered to!
I will not settle for the lowest common denominator!
