Overrated (everything is)
Maybe I'm jaded and bored
always lookin' for more
waitin' 'round for the next big fix
I know I'm a wreck, I'm a mess
but I couldn't care less
don't know what it would take to change me
Everybody's so afraid to be different
please excuse me now if I don't get it
Chorus:
I think sex is overrated
so is always getting wasted
designer drugs and dead end jobs
and classic rock is so outdated
I'm so sick of therapy
and all the things it's done to me
how can I be satisfied
when everything is overrated
[alt: Myspace friends are overrated
so is pop-punk getting famous
the same tight jeans and well-placed screams
the scene has become so outdated
I'm so sick of my TV and shows based on reality
how can I be satisfied
when everything is overrated]
Maybe the problem is me
but I won't make believe
and I can't take this mediocrity
what if this is a test
and I deserve what I get
will I wake up with all the answers
Everybody's too afraid to be different
please excuse me now if I don't listen
(Chorus)
[alt: 50 Cent is overrated
modern music's turning faceless
all those make-up metal bands
and Less Than Jake is so outdated
I am so sick of the scene
where all the kids are wearin' pink
it's getting old, it's getting dated
everything is overrated]
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa
when everything is overrated
whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa
when everything is overrated
Can't stand the normal
can't stand the ordinary
find me anything that's extraordinary
show me something, show me anything
am I the only one
am I the only one
I think sex is overrated
so is always getting wasted
all my friends and family
they make my life so complicated
I'm so sick of apathy
and TV show reality
how can I be satisfied
when everything is overrated
[alt:Indie bands are overrated
they'll just whine when they get famous
bodyguards for Warped Tour stars
protect you from those kids with braces
I'm so sick of magazines
who killed what music means to me
how can I be satisfied
when everything is overrated]
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa
when everything is overrated
whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa
when everything is overrated
In With the Out Crowd

Absolution for Idiots and Addicts
