An old man addressed me
at work in the parking lot
said how could you put up with this s**t
i was listening to diesel boy
rock anthym all the way
how could you be such a shallow intellectual

open your head
you can listen if you want
i just hope you'd understand
that if you open your head
you'd appreciate it more
i just hope that you still can

but since you've lost the message
the message and it seems
you've been waiting a lifetime to get this far

in the short time i've lived
i learned how to appreciate
something i know nothing about
however if i did have a reason to trash
i'd have more sense than to tell you it's s**t
before inflicting it

all your bs
not a single backing word
not a single act of observation
all your bs
and i'm waiting for some more
and i'm waiting and that's it
nothing nadda zip

but you've lost the message
the message and it seems
you've been waiting a lifetime to get this far
