Don't wanna find myself h*mogenized Don't wanna become the very thing that I despise Don't want my mommy feedin' me culture with a spoon Don't wanna end up with as much edge as a balloon Don't want my ideas polluted by mediocrity Don't want my sentiments diluted This is important to me I've tried to give my best to you But you plugged up your ears And now I just can't take no more I've had it up to here Don't wanna be another boy next door Don't wanna pander to the ma**es anymore Don't need the whole wide world to love me, don't wanna win the human race Don't need my music to be less well known than my face Don't wanna compromise my out for universal appeal Don't wanna be ma** consumed I'm not a happy meal I've tried to give my best to you But you plugged up your ears And now I just can't take no more I've had it up to here I've moved out from the sticks Nobody believed in me Had to cut my way up Overcome all kinds of adversity Oh, if you think I need approval From a faceless john, oh That's where you're wrong I've tried to give my best to you But you plugged up your ears And now I just can't take no more I've had it up to here (I've had it) (I've had it) I've had it up to here
