Weezer - Troublemaker lyrics

Put me in a special school because
I am such a fool
And I don't need a single book
To teach me how to read
Who needs stupid books? They
Are for petty crooks
And I will learn by studying
The lessons in my dreams so turn off the TV
'cause that's what others see
And movies are as bad
As eating chocolate ice-cream
They only sicken me
Don't let me play football
I'll sack the quarterback and jack
The brother of the ball

I'm a troublemaker, never been a faker
Doing things my own way and never giving up
I'm a troublemaker, not a double taker
I don't have the patience to
Keep it on the up

I picked up a guitar, what does this signify?
I'm going to play some heavy metal
Riffs and you will die
You wanted arts and crafts? How's
This for arts and crafts?
Wanannanananananananananananananana, that's
Right! I'm growing out my hair
I'm moving out to Cherokee
I'm going to be a rock star and
You are going to bear with me
Because I can't work a job
Like any other slob
Punching in and punching out and
Sucking up to Bob
Marrying a beeyotch, having seven keeyods
Giving up and growing old and
Hoping there's a God

I'm a troublemaker, never been a faker
Doing things my own way and never giving up
I'm a troublemaker, not a double taker
I don't have the patience to
Keep it on the up

I'm going to be a star
And people will crane necks
To get a glimpse of me and
See if I am having sex
And studying my moves, they try to understand
Why I am so unlike the
Singers in the other bands
I'm such a mystery as anyone can see
There isn't anybody else exactly
Quite like me
And when it's party time, like 1999
I'll party by myself because I'm
Such a special guy

I'm a troublemaker, never been a faker
Doing things my own way and never giving up
I'm a troublemaker, not a double taker
I don't have the patience to
Keep it on the up

Keep it on the up, I'm a troublemaker
Keep it on the up, I'm a troublemaker
Keep it on the up, I'm a troublemaker
Keep it on the up, I'm a troublemaker
Never giving up
