5. Self-Conscious

I'll put green paint on my face

and climb a big oak tree

and I'll throw shit on unsuspecting

people who piss off me

I'm not gonna be careful

when I go out on a limb

they will shout "get down" and I'll just

laugh and fire again

I tell 'em I don't care

but secretly I do

the way people stare

makes me nervous

I tell 'em I don't care

but secretly I do

I'm not gonna live this way forever

I just wanna be free

and do what I wanna

and who cares what say you

this is my life, live your own

if you read these lyrics

and tell me that they suck

I wish I didn't give a fuck

but you hurt my feelings

I tell 'em I don't care

but secretly I do

the way people stare

makes me nervous

I tell 'em I don't care

but secretly I do

I'm not gonna live this way forever

it would be self-conscious of me not to admit that I get a little self-conscious after all

I posted this one before.  I wanted to put it here again, though, so the two people who read this blog can see them in order.
