Tell us where you're from
What you want to become
And we'll say if you're OK
Where did you go to school?
Right answer and you're cool
Yeah, you're the kid the whole day

You get a sticker in your face
Information about the case
So you know your potential
Don't think you can extend
Don't think you can extend, just comprehend
But I don't wana hear it
No, it's more than I accept

'Cause I don't care where I belong no more
What we share or not I will ignore

We will shut you out
We'll put you in doubt
If you think that you're special
We'll tell you who you are
We'll tell you that you're close but no cigar
But I don't wana hear it
No, it's more than I accept

'Cause I don't care where I belong no more
What we share or not I will ignore
And I won't waste my time fitting in
'Cause I don't think contrast is a sin

What they say is...
Go back, where you came from
They'll tell you that, I don't want to hear
No, I don't want to hear
No, I don't want to hear it
No, it's more than I accept

'Cause I don't care where I belong no more
What we share or not I will ignore
And I won't waste my time fitting in
'Cause I don't think contrast is a sin
No, it's not a sin

I met a fox the other day.
When I asked how much she cost, I had to pay.
All of a sudden I'd brought her home.
She's one hundred kilos dressed in silverchrome.

She's my world, she's so rad.
She's the best ride I've ever had.
She's my world, she's so bad.
She's the best ride I've ever had.

When I imagine me and her.
You know that I get a stand-up fur.
I give her oil, I give her gas,
And get her seat beneath her ass.
Then the turtledoves drive away.

She's secondhand, so what? She's true, she's by my side.
For all I care she's hot, she's a real good ride.
When we go out people stop and stare with jealous minds.
It's OK for me as long as they let her be...
To prevent something like a theft I got her locked around a tree.

Millencolin - Material Boy lyrics

I'm leaving the Wat. To Buddhism no longer loyal.
I'm breaking my heart, as my compassion to the third world
turned to greed.
Bye bye, real McCoy, no ideals as if I was royal.
Now, I'm a material boy.
There's nothing in this world I don't think I need.

Now I'm shopping, I'm not stopping.
There'll always be new stuff to buy
and I'll expand my needs somehow.

I bought an iMac and mouse, a phone to go with my new spirit.
Next step might be a house, six bedrooms and a pool just for me.
I will live like a Tsar, the beggars chant won't hear it.
I'll have a boat, new TV and car.
And in my mouth a fat Cuban cigar.

Now I'm shopping, I'm not stopping.
There'll always be new stuff to buy
and I'll expand my needs somehow.
I'll expand my needs somehow I swear.

Everybody is leaving from this town and from me.
They've got the burning flame, they sure achieve their aim.
You know that's tough for me to see.
Oh, how I wish I could do the same as them and go.
Just pack my bags and good-bye,
get out fast or fade away real slow.

What you see is what you get right here,
where a change is nowhere near.
What you see is what you get from me.
In this duckpond, leave me be.

I pretend my life is perfect like the faces on TV.
Yeah, that's the only way to face another day,
try to deny the misery.
But those are the ways of lonely's and like a clown,
yeah, I do act.
No matter where I could be or would like to go,
I'm stuck here. That's a fact.

I'm too weak I'm down on my knees.
Too feeble for something new.
Feels like there's nothing I can do.
Keep on laughing 'bout me,
keep on doing your own,
But someday I will be that one.

Be that one.
Yeah, someday I will be that one...

I gotta get me a grip and be strong.
Gotta show I can rip, moving on.
As I'm trembling, it's not ending.
Gotta avoid to make slips and meet nongs.

'Cause I want it, yeah I wanna live my life.
I wanna live my life in this world.
And I need it. Yes, I need it.
Yeah, I need to spend my days on this earth.

I gotta learn to say NO, disallow.
Well, it's my turn to go pro, right about now.
I've been fading for too long, degrading.
I gotta earn me some dough, this is how.

At 23, I was far from feeling free.
At 24, my life was a big bore.
Now I'm 25 and I'm still not high,
yeah, I'm 25 but still alive.
I'll never give up and I'll reach my goal,
until I reach my goal... Controlling body and soul.

I don't want you to know too much about me, oh no.
'Cause I know you'll take advantage of the words that I say.
You're looking for a way to depress me, make me pay.

You don't want me to be,
too close around you 'cause I would see.
All the weak sides that you got, bout which you're trying to hide.
You know that I would nail you if I could nurse my pride.

You're on the top when I'm low.
As soon as you're fading I will grow.
I don't like you. You don't like me.
We're lacking energy. Yeah, we're lacking energy.

It's a mindgame we play.
Rule the roost, major cliche.
While one of us is fit the other's going insane.
And every time we think the positions will remain.

You're on the top when I'm low.
As soon as you're fading I will grow.
I don't like you. You don't like me.
We're lacking energy. Yeah, we're lacking energy.
So you got me up against the wall
and I'm only waiting for your fall.
I'll get back on top and be carefree.
It's not the end for me, no It's not the end for me.

I know we're thinking the same
and our opponent's the one to blame.
Thinking this way is not something we both longed for.
Living this way is never something we did plan.
But I don't think we will change.
'cause we're stuck in roles as other's antipoles.

No matter what I feel for you,
those three words I can't say.
I regret the times I used the word OK.
I know how much it means when people
show they really care.
Of the value in honesty, I'm quite aware.
But still there's much in me that I don't share.

Don't have the guts to say what I think.
I'm too scared, don't have the guts to say what I think.
I'm too scared, don't have the guts to say what I think.
I'm too scared to say what I think of you.

The other way around I'd say
I function the same way.
The darker sides of me I underplay.
Afraid to get into conflicts,
afraid to tell you, NO.
Though I know this weakness keeps me low.
There's so much inside me, that I don't show.

Don't have the guts to say what I think.
I'm too scared, don't have the guts to say what I think.
I'm too scared to say what I think of you.

Somethings I can never show.
Why I don't know...

Don't have the guts to say what I think.
I'm too scared, don't have the guts to say what I think.
I'm too scared, don't have the guts to say what I think.
I'm too scared to say what I think of you.
I'm too scared of what I really think of you.

Yes, I'm Yugoslav, indeed a Swede.
Got two brothers, girlfriend, dad and mom.
Good boxershorts I need, lots of maps I read.
I would love to run my own farm.

I like the Beatles, funk and punk.
I watch hockey, basketball, play chess.
I eat veggie-junk and I love Superchunk.
To boule and travel I say yes.

All this I adore at the same it's just me.
It's what I care for, it's what I want to be.

I want it all, I want it all to stay right here.
I want it all to be a part of Slick Nick's sphere.
I want it all to be sincere where ever I go.

Lisa, Madonna are girls who knows where it's at
and Dr. Kris is a favorite rocker.
My main star is Miat, we have a car, a Fiat.
Yeah, still my dearest sport is soccer.

I'm not an ace on bass, it's what I face.
But yeah, I think it's king to sing.
Sailingboats I chase, I'd like to go into space.
Riding my silverfox is the real thing.

I want it all, I want it all to stay right here.
I want it all to be a part of Slick Nick's sphere.
I want it all to be sincere where ever I go.
Where ever I go, where ever I go, where ever I...
All around the world I go, Pennybridge, Belgrade and even T.O.

You never wanted to go.
You didn't dare to let me know.
The luck could turn back to my side.
I knew my washes qualified,
so why won't you let me show who I am.

I'm not doing this because of you.
And I, I'm not here because you want me to.
I know you're feeling you can see me through.
Well, it's all lost the moment I stop to think.

Now I'm leaving you in fear,
but I will come back every year
to be the fifth wheel you don't need.
I'll be a reason for you to speed.
So why won't you let me show who I am.

The moment I stop to think,
same moment as I start to sink.
Sometimes I wish I were like you,
so why won't you let me show who I am.

Everything's complete,
the newly wed syndrome.
The mayfly hit the street,
everybody in plus.
Burnt out as can be,
watching you go home.
It's crystal clear to me,
you no longer need us.
It's OK, we'll come around.

Now there's nothing left for us,
we're packing up, saying goodbye.
To a place no one can trust.
To a scene based on a lie.
I truly hope we won't retreat.
The same mistake we won't repeat.
The bond was stabile as a shed.
Love is mutual, love is dead.

Everythin went great
with lot's of beginners luck.
The mayfly on a skate,
timing in perfection.
Bored out as can be,
monkey's getting stuck.
The four of us agreed,
we need to follow the action,
where ever that might be...

Here I go,
I'm tired about what all you say.
-Just one show, you owe it to the kids, so play!
That's all bull,
the main thing's that we're having fun!
Said and done, said and done,
I don't owe a shit to anyone.

When I was younger I did not know how to be.
I lived my own lie and I never asked the questions why.
I always talked and dressed like everyone 'round me.
Where were my own view and my own thoughts?
I don't have a clue.

Insecurity, no confidence that was my style.
I did some false things,
you'd say I was playing the wrong strings.
To realize and see how lost I was, it took a while.
But it was worth it
'cause now I'm much more confident and fit.

I'm not going down the highway,
'cause I had the might to stop
and turn around before it was too late.
Instead I'm slowly going my way
and if I don't reach the top,
I still got loads here I appreciate.

Just because I'm older now
does not mean I'm complete.
Yeah, I still have got fear,
it's not as strong but it's still here.
And I'm confused at times,
but now I know where to put my feet.
Right in my own trail,
that's the only place if I don't wanna fall.

I'm holding you as you feel scared and small.
You've lost someone you love
and it's her you're thinking of.
It's all that matters to you right now
and it will be like this for long.
I'll be close to you, won't hide
'cause I know you need me by your side.

You wanna see her back again.
You wanna see her back into this world.

The past few months have been the
toughest of your life.
You've lost someone you love
and there's no greater pain above.
I know how close you were you two
and the joy and love you shared.
It was sweet for me to see,
but now it's aching inside me.

If only she could see you now.
Deep inside I think she can somehow.
She'd be the happiest mom, she'd be so proud.
She'd laugh and smile.
-Shut up you're dreaming!
You're screaming at me loud.
And that's the way you really feel.

Back into this world...

So you ain't got all your chickens home
But from what I do recall
You don't have incurable syndromes
So don't you worry 'bout a single thing
Don't you hurry, you're a future king

I know it's all in you
Just gotta find out what you want to do
I know it's all in you
And deep inside you feel it to

They say you're lazy and you don't want to work
It's not too crazy not to want to slave, you're not a jerk
So don't you doubt about your future plan
You're a knockout and I'm your biggest fan

You know it's up to you, you always have an option
To choose what you want to do, take control or run and hide
It's OK to take a fall, if you have good intentions
As long as you give it all, you'll feel good inside

I know it's all in you
Just gotta find out what you want to do
I know it's all in you
And deep inside you feel it to
I know it's all in you
The common sense, splendid point of view
I know it's all in you
All your dreams they can come true

The last selection in the ballgame.
Does never get a pass.
"Not appreciated's" just his first name.
He's the scapegoat of the class.
There are no friends to cheer him up and
no girls, no sweet romance.
It's impossible to expand,
when you never get a second chance.

Do you know, who's that guy, who's all alone?
Do you care enough to see? He's in pain and misery.

He's not going to the school-prom.
He said he had the flu.
Trumped-up excuses he told his mom.
-I'm safer here with you.
She told her son. -Someday, they'll all be
sorry for mistreating you.
Don't be afraid my son and trust me.
-You'll be someone they will look up to.

Do you know, who's that guy, who's all alone?
Do you care enough to see?
He's in pain and misery... Do you care enough to see?

Do you know, who's that guy, who's all alone?
Do you care enough to see? He's in pain and misery.
