Mad Hooligan Dog

Round and round the world spins
Outside the birdie's cage
Echo, echo through the space
A mysterious thing in an empty place

Cannot fly, cannot try,
Cannot be part or whole,
Cannot ask why, cannot say no,
You're not allowed to live or grow

Play where we say,
Out of trouble you'll stay -
We cannot trust you
Come to us for anything!
Don't worry, we won't yell,
We'll simply scream and tell
All our friends and lovelies of
Your fiery, newborn hell
But you can cope, we've raised you strong
Ain't that right? So sing your song
But do it right! Hit all the notes,
Meet all expectations
Hell, we didn't meet them, but we know you can
No negotiations, you're not experienced enough
You haven't been here enough
No, you can't leave here
You don't get out enough
Your thoughts don't matter
This is our house

I do matter, I am a part
Living with you is more than an art
You're no Einstein, you can't prove it
The world has changed, has grown, has split
Age doesn't matter in our lifetime skit
I'm mature, I can handle it all
Even your squawking and chirping and gawking
I know you care
To remove the chains and live so free
We can coexist, you, you and me
Actually, it doesn't matter, doesn't matter if we agree
I'm still here and so are you, we coexist and I am free
You may think that I am not, but I am different, I am me
