Lyrics

Superficial

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I'm sick of hearing songs

About the boy who was ignored

And the girls who did him wrong

They said that he was shy

And they claimed he wasn't manly

Oh, how that made him cry

But now he's rich and famous

Such a pitty ain't it

They missed the opportunity

To catch a rising star

And to me it seems obnoxious

Mr. Singer are you not just insecure

And now you're singin

Why'd they have to be so superficial

Now you wish they'd be more superficial

It seems to me to be so artificial

So go and write your song

Just know you're the superficial one

You're so superficial

Mr. Folds can take a pass

(Cuz) the doors were so damn angry

They said to kiss his ass

You know a kiss. Myself

(Not sure what's here)

Oh so for all the other losers

The begger is now the chooser

Who'd 've thought you would be

The coolest kid in class

And you're laughing in their faces

At the chance that they have wasted

Cuz the nice guys don't always finish last

And now you're singin

Why'd they have to be so superficial

Now you wish they'd be more superficial

Seems to me to be so artificial

So go and write your song

Just know that you're the superficial one

You're so superficial

I just know that you're the superficial one

You're so superficial

Who are you to say that she's not better off

She could be married

With some children

To a doctor in vermont

And if you're thinking 'bout these girls

It's hypocritical

You're not out of their league

If you're still stuck in their world

And if things for me are well

You know I thank those who helped me

And I won't punish no one else

Cuz I don't need to tell regret

I might forgive, I might forget

Cuz I'm the bigger man

Except maybe say

Go fuck yourself

Why'd they have to be so superficial

Now you wish they'd be more superficial

Seems to me to be so artificial

So go and write your song

But it's you that is the superficial one

You're so superficial

Stupid superficial one
