All the perfect people, shallow and deceitful
Staring back at me on TV in magazines
Look so good like a box of fresh wrapped Twinkies
What the hell happened to me?
So I took a drive to a rich and wealthy country
Saw everything I wanted and everything I need
Went right up and tried to join their party
You oughta seen the look when they saw me
Fucked up eyes, stupid grin
Perfect people won't let me in
Who's who list, where's my name
They won't let me join their game
I bet you think that I'm insane
There's no one left for me to blame
Screw the perfect people
Fuck they all look the same
We're not much to look at
Too short, dumb and so fat
Never gonna win a beauty pageant it's a curse
Always gonna be a better doorman
At the best clubs
How could thing's be any worse?
Don't have much to go on don't want your opinion
Don't have much to gain and I ain't got much to lose
Looks like you got it all and I'd really like to
Get some
You got something I could use

    It's criticising cliques and groups who think their so cool and better than others and won't include black sheeps into their groups because it might "make them look uncool in front of their perfect people friends."

    ATDILoser and urbanninja4: Where the FU** do you come across thinking these people are a bunch of little teeny bopper pop-punk, punk wannabees?!??!??!?!?!!? Where did they list their history of music preferences and ideals??!?!?! Where did they say that they are: "fuckin little kids that listen to Simple Plan or New Found Glory or some shitty pop band like that and think they're punk." HUH??!?! In fact, a couple of these guys who posted before you are the same age as you!!!!!!!! You pathetic fu**s!!! If you wanna go breath down the necks of some stupid wannabee punkers, go to the message boards of bands like Blink182, Sum41, Simple Plan, NFG, etc. You stupid fu**s!!! You're in the pennywise message board...there's no wanna-be punkers here. Pennywise isn't glorified as a popular band and played all over the radio and on MTV. Pennywise's fans are either long-time-listeners, or truly believe in their message. And they never said they're the people who go out and dress like the sterotypical wanna-be punkers. They are most likely the same as you - true punks on the inside, not the outside. if anything, you just falsely insulted your fellow punk fans. I think you owe them an apology.

    Though I don't quite see how you're getting pop-punk out of some guys commenting on a Pennywise song, I do get what you're trying to say, ATDILoser. There really is this stupid "punk" image going around that's starting to annoy the piss out of me. I've seen people go and buy some key chain that says PUNK in pink and black letters at a gas station, and there's even a girl I've seen carrying a black messenger bag with Tinker Bell on it, sporting the words "PuNK PiXiE." I almost gave up on life in America and killed myself.
