Bob Mould - Disappointed lyrics
[Bob Mould - Disappointed lyrics]
Well, I'm sorry you're disappointed
But times they change and so did I
Standing still and getting nowhere quicker
Well, it seems I didn't have to try
But now I've found a reason to move on
And you won't miss me much now that I'm gone
You don't seem disappointed
The three years I went to college
Didn't make much of a difference to me
Made me feel so safe, I didn't have to think
About the things I really wanna be
So don't get caught up in that trap
They'll make you feel like
You've been trapped
Into owing them your gratitude
And all the other platitudes
That make you feel important when you go
But now I've found a reason to move on
And you won't miss me much now that I'm gone
You don't seem disappointed
'Cause when you're gone
Somebody else will come along
And take your place
It doesn't make me feel any less a member
Of the human race, this ain't no race
Well, I'm sorry you're disappointed
But, I don't feel that way today
I am free from all the crazy games you played
I am free from all the things you say
And I don't mean to make
A mockery of the things
You thought I'd say when I left
But, I'm not disappointed
And if I felt the urge to say you're wrong
Well, I just hold the words inside and laugh
And you'd be disappointed so disappointed
So disappointed
But times they change and so did I
Standing still and getting nowhere quicker
Well, it seems I didn't have to try
But now I've found a reason to move on
And you won't miss me much now that I'm gone
You don't seem disappointed
The three years I went to college
Didn't make much of a difference to me
Made me feel so safe, I didn't have to think
About the things I really wanna be
So don't get caught up in that trap
They'll make you feel like
You've been trapped
Into owing them your gratitude
And all the other platitudes
That make you feel important when you go
But now I've found a reason to move on
And you won't miss me much now that I'm gone
You don't seem disappointed
'Cause when you're gone
Somebody else will come along
And take your place
It doesn't make me feel any less a member
Of the human race, this ain't no race
Well, I'm sorry you're disappointed
But, I don't feel that way today
I am free from all the crazy games you played
I am free from all the things you say
And I don't mean to make
A mockery of the things
You thought I'd say when I left
But, I'm not disappointed
And if I felt the urge to say you're wrong
Well, I just hold the words inside and laugh
And you'd be disappointed so disappointed
So disappointed
