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 realize 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 sizable 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'
