So you said you've been a far whisper But I say I can hear you clearly boy No matter what you do You are always so much louder than me You take up lots of space Taking mine away But you don't seem to mind So don't be surprised to hear That I don't think you're kind I have you on my mind When I think of things I dislike No matter what you do I don't want to become like you The sea couldn't pull me in And so can't you Though you think you do And I don't tell the truth Cause sometimes, you know It takes a little while Till the words are found That match my sound Just because I'm slow Doesn't mean to go Just as far till I let you know To stop to quit to leave to cease You think my life's too much about things I don't like I complain too much, nurture my anger too much But hear what I tell you, boy I can just as well undress Leave all this mess It's not that I have chosen The world that I live in The only thing I chose is To not be too happy When things aren't like that My hours of bliss Are there, be sure But I choose carefully With whom to share So boy, beware Cause all I got for you Is my anger, my contempt Have you ever spent a thought or two On things not concerning you What you call pain Is a vain attempt To get all the attention needed To nurture your ego Nurture your ego But I'm not a mother No, I'm not a mother Go find yourself someone other
