The Puppet Who Sliced His Strings
You always tell me I'm not a guy
I'm not the boss of who I am inside
Really mom, why aren't you proud of me, of me?
You never wanted me to be gay
Is it my fault I like that hot babe
I guess I am not who you dreamed of, dreamed of
Mom, I am not a complete failure
Dad, I am not a total loser
I am just trying to be me
I'm sorry that I'm not what you destined me to be, Mom
I'm going to be me
I'm sorry that I'm not listening lately, Dad
I'm going to make my choices
I'm sorry that I'm not what you destined me to be, Mom
I'm going to be me
I'm sorry that I'm not listening lately, Dad
So if you are like me
Listen up
This is who I am, not who you want me to be
So please let me be
The arts is a waste of a degree
But it makes me happy
You hate that, it doesn't make the money, money
Why won't I date the sexy jock
Even though I would never touch that cock
Geeks aren't good enough for you, for you
Mom, I am not a complete failure
Dad, I am not a total loser
I am just trying to be me
I'm sorry that I'm not what you destined me to be, Mom
I'm going to be me
I'm sorry that I'm not listening lately, Dad
I'm going to make my choices
I'm sorry that I'm not what you destined me to be, Mom
I'm going to be me
I'm sorry that I'm not listening lately, Dad
So if you are like me
Listen up
This is who I am, not who you want me to be
So please let me be
I'm just a teenager gone wrong
I'm not going to last here long
Really, a fool without a brain
Someday I might change
But hey, listen to me
I'm sorry that I'm not what you destined me to be, Mom
I'm going to be me
I'm sorry that I'm not listening lately, Dad
I'm going to make my choices
I'm sorry that I'm not what you destined me to be, Mom
I'm going to be me
I'm sorry that I'm not listening lately, Dad
So if you are like me
Listen up
This is who I am, not who you want me to be
This is who I am, not who you want me to be
This is who I am, not who you want me to be
So please let me be
