Lyrics

[Verse 1] Let me tell y'all what it's like Being male, middle-class, and white It's a bitch, if you don't believe Listen up to my new CD Sham on [Verse 2] I got shit runnin' through my brain It's so intense that I can't explain All alone in my white-boy pain Shake your booty while the band complains, yeah! [Chorus] 'Cause I'm rockin' the suburbs Just like Michael Jackson did I'm rockin' the suburbs Except that he was talented I'm rockin' the suburbs I take the checks and face the facts That some producer with computers fixes all my shitty tracks, all right [Verse 3] I'm pissed off, but I'm too polite When people break in the McDonald's line Mom and Dad you made me so uptight I'm gonna cuss on the mic tonight I don't know how much I can take Girl, give me something I can break [Chorus] I'm rockin' the suburbs Just like William Shatner does I'm rockin' the suburbs Except that he is talented I'm rockin' the suburbs I take the checks and face the facts That some producer with computers fixes all my shitty tracks God damn! [Verse 4] In a haze these days When I pull up to the stop light I can feel that something's not right I can feel that someone's blasting me with hate And bass Sendin' dirty vibes my way 'Cause my great great great great Grandad Made someone's great great great great Grandaddies slaves It wasn't my idea It wasn't my idea Never was my idea I just drove to the store For some Preparation-H Ouch [Bridge] Y'all don't know what it's like Being male, middle-class and white Y'all don't know what it's like Being male, middle-class and white Y'all don't know what it's like Being male, middle-class and white Y'all don't know what it's like Being male, middle class and white It gets me real pissed off, it makes me wanna say It gets me real pissed off, and it makes me wanna say It gets me real pissed off, and it makes me wanna say It gets me real pissed off, and it makes me wanna say FUCK! [Chorus] Just like Henry Rollins did I'm rockin' the suburbs Except that he's shown off talent I'm rockin' the suburbs I take the checks and face the facts That some producer with computers fixes all my shitty, all my shitty tracks Yeah yeah I'm rockin' the suburbs Uh! I'm rockin' the suburbs Ohhh [Outro] You better watch out, because I'm gonna say 'Fuck' You better watch out, because I'm gonna say 'Fuck' You better watch out, because I'm gonna say 'Fuck' You better watch out, because I'm gonna say 'Fuck' You better watch out, because I'm gonna say 'Fuck' You better watch out, because I'm gonna say 'Fuck' You better watch out, because I'm gonna say 'Fuck' You better watch out, because I'm gonna say 'Fuck' You better watch out, because I'm gonna say 'Fuck' You better watch out, because I'm gonna say 'Fuck' You better watch out, because I'm gonna say 'Fuck' You better watch out FUCK!!!!!! FUCK YOU Ohh, ohh, feel my pain How's it feel for you Oh, fuck you Waa, waa, waa [Spoken] All right, Los Ange-lees! You know my friends they asked me "Where are you playing this weekend?" And I said to them, "Los Ange-lees" And they said, "What? Los Angeles is for pussies!" And I said like, "Blow me, 'cause Los Angeles fuckin' rocks!!!!"
