(+) In One Ear
They say that we ain't got the style
We ain't got the class
We ain't got the tunes
That's goin to put us on the map
And I'm a phony in disguise
Trying to make the radio
I'm an anti social anarchist
I sound like so and so
They say I'm just a stupid kid
Another crazy radical
Rock and roll is dead
I probably should've stayed in school
Another generation x
Who somehow slipped up
Through the cracks
Oh they'd love to see me fall
But I'm already on my back
And it goes in one ear
And right out the other
People talkin' shit but you know
I never bother
I goes in one ear
And right out the other
People talkin' shit
They can kiss the back of my hand
Now I know I'm not a saint
I been a sinner all my life
I ain't tryin to hide me flaws
I'd rather keep them in the light
They wanna criticise scrutinize
Cast another stone
Burn me at the stake and sit
And watch it from their throne
They say the devil is my pal
I do a lotta drugs
The crowd will only like me
If they're really fuckin' drunk
They think they know my thoughts
But they don't know the least
If they listened to the words
They'd find the message tucked beneath
But it goes in one ear
And right out the other
People talkin shit even though
They never bother
It goes in one ear
And right out the other
People talkin' shit
They can kiss the back of my hand
(You hear that
You hear what's coming?
Oh you better run for the hills
Cause we're coming to your town
And we're gonna burn
That mother fucker down)
Here's the moral to the story
We don't do it for the glory
We don't do it for the money
We don't do it for the fame
So all the critics who despise us
Go ahead and criticize us
It's your tyranny that drives us
Adds the fire to our flames
And it goes
In one ear
And right out the other
People talkin' shit
But you know we'll never bother
It goes in one ear
And right out the other
I'm only playing music cos you know
I fucking love it
It goes in one ear
And right out the other
People talkin' shit but you know
We'll never bother
It goes in one ear and right out the other
People talkin' shit well you know
They can kiss the back of my hand
