Lyrics

Storming through the party like my name was el ninio
When I'm hangin' out drinking in the back of an el camino
As a kid, I was a skid and no one knew me by name
I trashed my own house party cause no body came

I know I'm not the one you thought you knew back in high school
Never going, ever showing up when we had to
Is it attention that we crave don't tell us to behave
I'm sick of always hearing act your age

I don't want to waste my time
And become a casualty of society
I'll never fall in line
Become a victim of your conformity
And back down

Because you don't
Know us at all we laugh when old people fall
But what would you expect with a conscience so small
Heavy metal and mullets it's how we were raised
Maiden and priest were the gods that we praised

Cause we like having fun at other peoples expense and
Cutting people down is just a minor offence then
It's none of your concern, I guess I'll never learn
I'm sick of being told to wait my turn

I don't want to waste my time
And become a casualty of society
I'll never fall in line
Become a victim of your conformity
And back down

Don't count on me, to let you know when
Don't count on me, I'll do it again
Don't count on me, it's the point you're missing
Don't count on me, cause I'm not listening

Well I'm a no goodnick lower middle class brat
Back packed and I don't give a shit about nothing
You be standing on the corner talking all that kufuffin
But you don't make sense from all the gas you be huffing
Then if the egg don't stain you'll be ringing off the hook
You're on the hit list wanted in the telephone book
I like songs with distortion, to drink in proportion
The doctor said my mom should have had an abortion

I don't want to waste my time
And become a casualty of society
I'll never fall in line
Become a victim of your conformity
And back down
Waste my time with them
Casualty of society
Waste my time again
Victim of your conformity
And back down
