Born into the out,
There was nothing for you to be screaming and shouting about,
Time will tell, the years have told,
That your sisters and brothers will fall by days of gold.
So if you, boy, come of age,
Yeah, they'll revel in righteousness,
Wiping the smile from your face,
Sad to say, sad to say,
There's no mercy on you for falling behind in the chase.
To hear, You're never no good you see,
You lack a certain quality,
It's high time you've come to realise you've run the wrong chase.
We've seen through the looking glass,
Can't escape what's come to pass,
Or try to deny the thorn in your side is my taste.
Then you say I, I've had enough,
Of the extra credentials you need just to get by, it's tough.
My senses blurred, my body aches,
And it looks like the nightmares are haunting me more every day.
You say I would embrace my fears,
A push or a shove onto worship or love and believe,
I say no, oh no not me,
If you want to succeed then darling get down on your knees.
We were there, they swore a change, but never delivered.
We watched while they slithered away,
Big mistake, for such a fool,
Well I hope you choke on your sizeable slice of the chase.
So when we all come of age
Yeah we'll revel in righteousness, wiping the smile from their face,
Sad to say, so sad to say,
There's no mercy on you for falling behind in the chase.
I've had enough of your extra credentials,
I've had enough of them all,
I can't describe the reason I'm feeling,
Ten feet tall.
I'm rolling away on a wave,
I'm not gonna stay now darlin'
Hope that you know I won't change
I'm not gonna stay now darlin'
