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

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 (Okay)

I'm rocking like I should (Alright)

I'm doing thing, thing, thing, thing, thing, things you only wish you could (Uh huh, hey!)

You only wish you could (Uh huh)

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 scared of the boats and the 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 crosshairs, 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

(Bring 'em back now)

They say, say, say I'm good (Okay)

I'm rocking like I should (Alright)

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

Ay, 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 are 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 reroute it

Dope with a beat I need to speak about it

For the kids of the Labor left

Who got a bone to pick, 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

They say, say, say I'm good (Okay)

I'm rocking like I should (Alright)

I'm doing thing, thing, thing, thing thing, things you only wish you could (Uh huh)

You only wish you could (Uh huh)

You only, only, only, only ever wish you could
