lyrics

They say I’m too fuckin’ old and I’m too fuckin’ fat
They’re talkin’ ‘bout me as if I was disposable
I’m shut in this room full of padding, I’m trapped
And what they all want is: I’m not getting out of it
And I’m looking for a chink of sky
So i can look you in the eye and I can say
You’d better not treat me this way

Well you smell like a horse and you look like a pig
And you try to pretend that your thumbs are opposable
You criticize me every chance that you get
always putting me down: I know you are responsible
And I’m looking for a chink of sky
So i can look you in the eye and I can say
You’d better not treat me this way

And I know your trying to drive me to the edge
And I know you’re trying hard
and I know something and I‘ve got something to say
You’d better not treat me this way

They say it’s my brain, they say it’s my mind
That I should try all the things that are medically ethical
I should visit a shrink so he can put me to sleep
God knows I’ve tried- there just aren’t enough chemicals
to help me find a chink of sky
So i can look you in the eye and I can say
You’d better not treat me this way
