lyrics
If I wasn’t such a familiar face
How would you put me in my place?
Cuz I can’t help but think that
If you didn’t know me
You’d be there to cut me down
“Worst song, worst sound, leave town.”
Mowing everybody down, but here I am:
right side up!
If you didn’t know me by my name
Would you respect me just the same?
or would ya
Murmur that you hate me?
Huh? Eviscerate me?
Use your tongue to cut me down?
“Worst tune, worst band in the whole town.”
Mowing everybody down, but here I am:
Right side up!
I’ll keep cool. I’m old enough to know my role.
Don’t worry, I won’t repeat a thing that cold.
I’ll keep cool. I’m young enough to join in too.
Don’t worry. I’m just as unimpressed as you.
Maybe one day I’ll be miles away
Still I could guess what you might say
“Used to be better, used to be bold
Looking kinda tired now.
Old dog, old trick, put him down.”
Mowing everybody down, but here I am:
Right side up!
I’ll keep cool. I’m old enough to know my role.
Don’t worry, I won’t repeat a thing that cold.
I’ll keep cool. I’m young enough to join in too.
Don’t worry, I’m just as unimpressed as you.
How would you put me in my place?
Cuz I can’t help but think that
If you didn’t know me
You’d be there to cut me down
“Worst song, worst sound, leave town.”
Mowing everybody down, but here I am:
right side up!
If you didn’t know me by my name
Would you respect me just the same?
or would ya
Murmur that you hate me?
Huh? Eviscerate me?
Use your tongue to cut me down?
“Worst tune, worst band in the whole town.”
Mowing everybody down, but here I am:
Right side up!
I’ll keep cool. I’m old enough to know my role.
Don’t worry, I won’t repeat a thing that cold.
I’ll keep cool. I’m young enough to join in too.
Don’t worry. I’m just as unimpressed as you.
Maybe one day I’ll be miles away
Still I could guess what you might say
“Used to be better, used to be bold

Don’t worry, I won’t repeat a thing that cold.

Don’t worry, I’m just as unimpressed as you.
