Curtis Douglas - The Dirt lyrics

[Intro] Wait, I don't want to, but they say we have to I don't want to act that way [Verse 1] They say it's a process, but I find it obnoxious The poet in me can't stay straight So just stick to the concept You don't have to be honest Just be willing to throw it away But wait, I don't want to, but they say we have to I don't want to act that way 'Cause progress is perfect The line in the dirt says, "You can pick a side, it's okay" [Chorus] When all my friends are drinking I don't know what I'm gonna do When all my friends are singing And I can't stay in tune [Verse 2] So serious, so silent You've never been violent Now you're eyes, they're filled with hate So what came over you? This sure isn't the sober you But clearly it's all the rage But wait, I don't want to, but they say we have to I don't want to act that way 'Cause progress is perfect The line in the dirt says, "You can pick a side, it's okay" [Chorus] When all my friends are drinking I don't know what I'm gonna do When all my friends are singing And I can't stay in tune [Bridge] I don't want to share my birthday I don't want to sit in circles I don't want to pay for new ripped jeans [Outro] All my friends are drinking I don't know what I'm gonna do
