I donÕt want to be misrepresented

And I donÕt need to live like a king

But the trouble with myself for over twenty years

Has been the most peculiar thing

 

Chorus:

You see I beat myself up

IÕm my own biggest bully

I tear myself apart worse than the screwiest of screwy

I try to succeed but myself just wonÕt let me

Now my self-deprecation is sweeter than grape jelly

My ego is worn on the soles of my shoes

And my manic depression keeps me stuck in the blues

 

IÕd learn how to write if I could just calm down

IÕd learn how to draw if I could only see

My attention deficidit is bigger than this country

If only I could concentrate on one little thing

 

Chorus:

 

My sister calls me up with the same problems I have

And the solutions I give her are worse than our dadÕs

You see I canÕt cope with lifeÕs little problems of romance

Wasting all my energy on all my wasted chances
