I'm sick of living under everybody's shadow I'm sick of everyone's success, I know that's shallow I'm sick of hearing people lie to get by, to get by I'm sick of people that can't look me in the eye all the time
I'm tired of girls I'm tired of boys I'm tired of nonsense I'm t-t-t-t-t-t-tired of the process
I'm sick and tired of always feeling second best I'm tired of never ever making any progress To all the cool kids on my block Where's the original thought, tell me?
Oh yeah you never heard us Don't ever try to turn us down We're making all the noise We're making teenage sounds It's the same old song and dance We're sick of everybody trying to be famous
I'm sick of always operating out of fear I'm sick of being called a fag because I'm queer I'm sick of everybody saying to be happy I'm positive that I'm allowed to have a bad day I'm tired of everybody trying to be a DJ
Yeah I can also pick my favorite songs and press play I'm sick of people saying Rock n Roll is dead Learn how to play guitar and save yourself instead To all the cool kids on my block Where's the orginial thought, tell me?
Oh yeah you never heard us Don't ever try to turn us down We're making all the noise We're making teenage sounds It's the same old song and dance We're sick of everybody trying to be famous
The truth is hard to swallow when it's true The truth is hard to swallow when it's choking you The truth is hard to swallow when it's true The truth is hard to swallow when it's choking you
Oh yeah you never heard us Don't ever try to turn us down We're making all the noise We're making teenage sounds It's the same old song and dance We're sick of everybody trying to be famous
I'm sick of everybody trying to be famous I'm sick of everybody trying to be famous I'm sick of everybody trying to be famous I'm sick of everybody trying to be famous (fame is dead!)
