Say I'm Good

This is for those inbetweeners Who don't follow no one, follow no leaders Follow no trend or the sheep that are led Follow no fool, never fall in step I am not another voice in the choir Kicking out jams or the party line No I am not your poster child Do my own thing in my own damn style I would never assume to talk On the behalf of anybody but myself When I see anybody on a soapbox All I hear are the warning bells And even if we're on the same side I don't follow blind, I am not that guy And those pigeon holes are only made To hold the kind of bird that's afraid to fly They say, say, say I'm good I'm rocking like I should I'm doing thing, thing, thing, thing Thing, things you only wish you could You only wish you could You only, only, only, only ever wish you could This morning on the internet I discovered our destruction's imminent So we all get to act uninhibited Take two of these and relax with a cigarette Aw naw, here come the idiots, the oblivious And the militant bigots and affiliates Scares of the boats and they gays and the blacks Pulling quotes from Leviticus Here come the cause and effect of a country Caught up in patriotic bullshit And I don't fit and I don't care I'm a square peg in a round role here In the cross hairs I'm a bit weird And it's not fair and it's not clear So the whingers whinge and I cringe inside When they simplify things that are complex They say, say, say I'm good I'm rocking like I should I'm doing thing, thing, thing, thing Thing, things you only wish you could You only wish you could You only, only, only, only ever wish you could They say, say, say I'm good I'm rocking like I should I'm doing thing, thing, thing, thing Thing, things you only wish you could It ain't my fault, I got no love I'm at a pub complaining how this country sucks I'm an oddball, on the wrong team All my friends are out of step with the mainstream And the nightmare is in full swing And the right-wing fucking up the whole thing And it might be this stifling frightening feeling Is really only felt on the fringes But I doubt it, I re-rout it Dope with a beat I need to speak about it For the kids of the Labor left Who got a bone to pic, we didn't vote for that fuckstick I don't dig the kid, I don't kick the kid I don't think it'd change if you made the switch I don't dig the kid, I don't kick the kid I don't think it'd change if you made the switch I don't dig the kid, I don't kick the kid I don't think it'd change if you made the switch I don't buy the bullshit dreams Of an aspirationalist modern Australia
