๐ Lyrics
I'm just jealous, I'm just mad
But can you really queer Kerrang!?
I'm sure I'd say different if I was fan but I'm not
Don't wanna be bitter I wanna be better
But that word I seem to repeat forever
Do I wanna be nice or do I wanna be clever?
(You're neither!)
Well I see the same stories all unfold
Hypercritical hypocrite I'm often told, and I know
This green little monster should be happy for their friends
But I disagree with how we measure success
I know if you speak up people feel attacked
Criticisms you give they'll want to give right back
I know the trouble is not worth the fuss
A critique of punk from someone not punk enough
And now the scene seems imaginary
Based on print-based pageantry
A movement reduced to aesthetic
The scenes still rooten' in ethics
You can use what terms you like but
It's implied the point you missed it
Sure use it as your name but it sure isn't descriptive
But can you really queer Kerrang!?
I'm sure I'd say different if I was fan but I'm not
Don't wanna be bitter I wanna be better
But that word I seem to repeat forever
Do I wanna be nice or do I wanna be clever?
(You're neither!)
Well I see the same stories all unfold
Hypercritical hypocrite I'm often told, and I know
This green little monster should be happy for their friends
But I disagree with how we measure success
I know if you speak up people feel attacked
Criticisms you give they'll want to give right back
I know the trouble is not worth the fuss
A critique of punk from someone not punk enough
And now the scene seems imaginary
Based on print-based pageantry
A movement reduced to aesthetic
The scenes still rooten' in ethics
You can use what terms you like but
It's implied the point you missed it
Sure use it as your name but it sure isn't descriptive
