Greg Graffin - Opinion lyrics
[Greg Graffin - Opinion lyrics]
The first thing I remember was
The friction in the room
And that brown spinet piano that
Never played in tune
The cruel impatient tyrant
The frustrated malcontent
The need to find the pieces
And the absence of cement
No one ever told me about
The right way to love
And no one ever showed me what
We're supposed to be made of
So don't be too forthright about what
You think that I should be
And I'll willingly accept your
Low opinion of me
The last thing I remember was
The slamming of the door
And the resonance of my imperfection
Broke the silence once more
The selfish angry bastard who
Doesn't want to hear
I tried to learn compassion you
Turned the other ear
The worn out broken record who
Doesn't fit the mold
The righteous independent
The mood so harsh and cold
Mama never told me about the
Right way to love
And daddy never showed me what we're
Supposed to be made of
So don't be too forthright about what
You think that I should be
And I'll willingly accept your
Low opinion of me
The friction in the room
And that brown spinet piano that
Never played in tune
The cruel impatient tyrant
The frustrated malcontent
The need to find the pieces
And the absence of cement
No one ever told me about
The right way to love
And no one ever showed me what
We're supposed to be made of
So don't be too forthright about what
You think that I should be
And I'll willingly accept your
Low opinion of me
The last thing I remember was
The slamming of the door
And the resonance of my imperfection
Broke the silence once more
The selfish angry bastard who
Doesn't want to hear
I tried to learn compassion you
Turned the other ear
The worn out broken record who
Doesn't fit the mold
The righteous independent
The mood so harsh and cold
Mama never told me about the
Right way to love
And daddy never showed me what we're
Supposed to be made of
So don't be too forthright about what
You think that I should be
And I'll willingly accept your
Low opinion of me
