What Exactly's the Matter With Me

Why do I deny

All that's accepted true?

Why can't I live my life

Like I'm expected to?

Get a college degree, buy a color TV?

Oh, what's exactly the matter with me?

I believe no one's conclusions

I think for myself

I take nothing for granted

My brain ain't on the shelf

I've got my views

Though I may sound confused

Oh, what's exactly the matter with me?

Why can't I settle down

In one little place?

Find me a girl

And get out of this race?

But, my boots they start itching

My eyes they start looking

Oh, what's exactly the matter with me?

Why can't I march

When the cause is just?

Stamp out oppression

Greed and lust?

Oh, inferiority, insecurity

Yeah, that's exactly the matter with me

Why do I "yes" people

That I despise?

Why can't I say "I hate you"

Right to your eyes?

Oh, inferiority, pent up hostility

Yeah, that's exactly the matter with me

That's exactly the matter with me
