Flipping the Bird Lyrics

I stopped listening to you years ago
You always think that you know best, I know
I hear you explain things from the other room (the other room)
You spread your legs and you gesticulate

You tell me who you think I am (you tell me, you tell me)
And I agree with you but deep inside (you tell it)
I am flipping you the bird again (you tell me)
Seek long enough and ye shall find, my friend (you tell me, you tell it)

I am hungry, but I learned long ago
Now you don't eat the hand that feeds, I know
I eat my anger 'cause I am angry, man
I smile and say you're right because I can

You try to love (you try to love)
Well, you're too far gone (hard to love)
Inside (you're hard to love)
Your own self-worth (you're hard to love)
It died inside (you're hard to love)

You tell me who you think I am (you tell me, you tell me)
And I agree with you but deep inside (you tell me)
I am flipping you the bird again (you tell me)
Seek long enough and ye shall find, my friend (you tell me, you tell me)
(You tell me)
(You tell me)

I stole your jacket (I stole your jacket)
Because you're meek (because you're meek)
The one who asks (the one who asks)
Will not receive (will not receive)
Because you're meek

Flipping the bird
