lyrics

I opt out
Of all the politics you talk about
Your firework displays and your Christmas days
I opt out!

I opt out
I am a stereotype and I am proud
I'm just the boy with a guitar and a beating heart
I opt out!

What you hold dear is my fear
This is why I frown
Will you pity me, pray, pity me, pray
This is how I drown

I opt out
Of television, this town
Don't come to my backyard or send me credit cards
I opt out!

I opt out
I'm not a pioneer or a layabout
I am a little man in a grand plan
I opt out!

What you hold dear is my fear
This is why I frown
Will you pity me, pray, pity me, pray
This is how I drown
This is how I drown

What you hold dear is my fear
This is why I frown
Will you pity me, pray, pity me, pray
This is how I drown

What you hold dear is my fear
This is why I frown
Will you bury me, will you bury me
Will you bury me in the ground
Will you bury me in the ground

I opt out!
I opt out!
I opt out!
I opt out!

(I don't even know where to start
don't send me credit cards
or make me go to Starbucks
I've seen enough Pizza Huts
and Coca Cola trucks to last me a lifetime
that sh$t sucks)

I'm not a businessman!
