skinny middle class white guy blues
I went to see a film in nineteen eighty
and haven't had the time to go back lately
people seem to think my life is getting dull
I don't feel the need to impress anyone
I'm alright just here I hardly ever want
to leave right now the streets are so unpredictable
seven years ago I got into a fight
I asked for it myself of course I've set it right
I'm the kind of man who takes it on the chin
I ask you
Do you think I'm the big man yet?
I can keep on pushing til you do
Some things I can't forget
and I'm sure they never happened to you
I don't really hate my girlfriends sister
but once we had a date and since then I missed her
how is it I seemed to pick the ugly twin
I'm not all that easily disappointed
even though my words come out disjointed
and I stutter and I stammer and I feel like giving in
I don't really think her father hates me
he's the kinda guy who'd say it straight to me
always been the kind to lay it on the line
Do I look like a big man yet?
I can keep on trying til I do
Some things I can't forget
and I bet they never happened to you
Do I look like a big man yet?
I can keep on trying til I do
Some things I can't forget
and I bet they never happened to you
