Ted Jensen - I've Had It Up To Here lyrics

Don't want to find myself h*mogenized Don't want to become the very thing that I despised Don't need my mommy feedin' me culture with a spoon Don't want to end up with as much edge as a balloon Don't want my ideas polluted by mediocrity Don't want my sentiments diluted This is important to me I tried to give my best to you But you plugged up your ears And now I just can't take no more I've had it up to here Don't want to be the another boy next door Don't want to pander to the ma**es anymore Don't need the whole wide world to love me Don't want to win the human race Don't want my music to be less well-known than my face Don't want to compromise my art for universal appeal Don't want to be ma** consumed I'm not a happy meal I tried to give my best to you But you plugged up your ears And now I just can't take no more I've had it up to here I moved out from the sticks Nobody believed in me Had to climb my way up Overcome all kinds of adversity Oh, if you think I need approval from the faceless throng, whoa That's where you're wrong So wrong (Chorus) (I've had it I've had it I've had it) I've had it up to here
