We Don't Give a Fuck (About Your Mediocre Band) Lyrics

So you wanna go

You wanna go to the show

But they wouldn't let you in for free at the door

So you turn up your nose

But kind of feel abused

When your social credit card gets refused

"I'm an important person in this scene," you say

Well ain't it tough

When things don't go your way

Expect dejection, does it work out like you planned

Cuz we don't give a fuck about your mediocre band

And just so's you know

We're not above a low blow

It's just there's only so far down that we can reach

When you speak from your heart

And say you'd die for your art

Why is it so hard to practice what you preach

Your cult of vanity doesn't interest me

I've seen it all before

In nineteen eighty four

Your success sucks, it seems like sinking in quicksand

I'd rather be unknown than in a mediocre band

Don't the great minds think alike

Just cross your heart and hope to die

Go be shallow, don't be shy

Don't ask yourself the reason why

You're gonna get big

You're gonna get big big

You're gonna pa pa pa pa pa pa pa pa

Pop

It just goes to show

For all the shade that you throw

You only keep us cool and hidden from the heat

For all your gatekeeper charms

We'll stick to comrades-in-arms

And keep our feet firmly planted in the street

I'd rather bite my tongue clean off to spite my face

Than make it sing

To suit your taste

And if I have to tow the line I'll toe it in the sand

I'd rather die than kiss the feet

Of some mediocre band

We'll never stoop to crawl or fall at your command

Cuz we don't give a fuck about your mediocre band
