Autobiography

Lyrics

I'm writing 'young and gifted' in my autobiography I figure who would know better than me? I'm certainly the former But I'm not so much the latter But no one's gonna read it So I'm sure it doesn't matter When you find that you're the former Take pride in how you form And when you find that you're the latter Don't let those people walk on you I'm writing 'sharp and adult' With my finger on the steam On the mirror in my bathroom And I'm applying shaving cream Which could suggest that I'm the foamer But how can I be the lather? And something tells me It's the opposite I'd rather When you find that you're the foamer Be careful what you foam And when you find that you're the lather Don't shave too high, you'll regret it later La la la la la La la la la la la La laaa laaaa la la la La la la la I stayed in school this long But still no one will tell me why They figured Who would know better than I? I know I'm a conformer But I'm sure it doesn't matter My new friends are all adults And my old friends all have scattered When you find that you're a conformer Take pride and swallow whole But if you're trying to climb the ladder Don't let people walk over you Because that's just what they'll do And don't let people walk over you Because that's just what they'll do
