You should know I'm not a hater
But I understand it may sound that way
For people who never stood up for nothing
It's not wrong to have something to say.
It's actually the best thing you can do.
So, I'm not singing about California
Or how I'm gonna dance because I'm single, oh yeah
I don't think anyone has ever showed ya
But there's life beyond booze and sex.
~chorus:
No, we don't need another song about beer
And "I don't know how this tattoo got here"
We know your folks wanna send you to university
But you're too high on the pocket money
We don't need songs to party
Because that's not what music is made for
So, c'mon, everybody
Loud music is supposed to be good.
We don't need another fake boyband
With pretty hair and nothing to say
We need someone who'll scream the truth
Like everyday is fucking Election Day.
So I'm sorry if you can't dance to my song
But it was never really meant for you, kid
Because once upon a time songs had this thing called words
And people actually cared about it.
So, yeah, I don't care about the sick beats
Or people who pretend to sing
I listen to them on TV
I feel I'm in freaking Discovery Kids.
~chorus:
No, we don't need another song about beer
And "I don't know how this tattoo got here"
We know your folks wanna send you to university
But you're too high on the pocket money
We don't need songs to party
Because that's not what music is made for
So, c'mon, everybody
Loud music is supposed to be good.
~bridge:
You have a brain that's fucking brilliant
I don't care what the school said
You're allowed to more than think, man
Also dream and create.
'Cause you can.
You're not a brick, you're a little piece
Of something much bigger than that
And your absence will be missed
Can you do something about that?
~chorus:
No, we don't need another song about beer
And "I don't know how this tattoo got here"
We know your folks wanna send you to university
But you're too high on the pocket money
We don't need songs to party
Because that's not what music is made for
So, c'mon, everybody
Loud music is supposed to be good.
~outro:
This thing I talk about is called freedom
You think you know the meaning
'Cause you memorized it at a school test, but you didn't really comprehend it.
You think you know freedom
But you don't.
It's not breaking the law, it's not saying what you want.
It's being able to say something worth it.
It's being able to stand up alone.
But I understand it may sound that way
For people who never stood up for nothing
It's not wrong to have something to say.
It's actually the best thing you can do.
