90 Pounds of Pete — Tryouts lyrics

Lyrics

Tell me the difference between all the tenses
This conflict of interest can swing for the fences
You said I was honest
You said I was different
This kid’s got a long list
He needs a prescription
(He needs a prescription) x2
Tell me the difference between their Americans
This conflict of interest gets so that we’ve bared arms
You said I was special
You said I was gifted
This kid’s got an ego
His spirits are lifted
Keep on, keep on keepin' on I said alright but
This conversation’s had enough of sound advice from you
Keep on, keep on keepin' on I said alright but
This conversation’s had enough of sound advice from you
Tell me a story about how your plans changed
Your life took a journey
Right down the fucking drain
It’s always so basic
The kind that makes me sick
This kid’s got a brain tick
It’s feeding on both things
Keep on, keep on keepin' on I said alright but
This conversation’s had enough of sound advice from you
Keep on, keep on keepin' on I said alright but
This conversation’s had enough of sound advice from you
Now I stand in the pouring rain
The argument is still the same
And I don’t know about your name
But in your eyes I feel okay
A tremble stirs and trouble’s strange
But I can manage through the pain
And I don’t know about your name
But in your eyes I’m not insane
But in your eyes I’m not insane
(You)
(You)
