Straight A's Lyrics
Sixteen, on the honor roll
I wish that I was dead
Parents hate me, I got zits
And bruises round my head
Pressure's on to get good grates
So I can be like them
Do my homework all the time
I can't go out just then
People they ain;t friends at all
They tease and suck me dry
Yell at me when I fuck up
And party while I cry
I look so big on paper
I feel so fucking small
Wanna die and you don't care
Just stride on down the hall
Suicide suicide
Read the paper, wonder why
Turn the light out, then you cry
It's you fault, you made me die
Touch me won't you touch me now
So frozen I can't love
When I was born my mama cried
And picked me up with gloves
Girls, they kick me in the eye
Want answers to the tests
When they get them they drive off
And leave me home to rest
Hold my head
Make me warm
Tell me I am loved
Give me hope
Let me cry
Make me feel
Give me touch
The window's broken bleeding screaming
Lying in the hall
I'm gone no one remembers me
A picture on the wall 'He was such a bright boy The future in his hands...'
- Or a spineless human pinball
Shot around by your demands
Suicide suicide
Goin' to sleep and when I die
You'll look up and realize
Then look down and wipe your eyes
Then go back to your stupid lives
Aw shit
I wish that I was dead
Parents hate me, I got zits
And bruises round my head
Pressure's on to get good grates
So I can be like them
Do my homework all the time
I can't go out just then
People they ain;t friends at all
They tease and suck me dry
Yell at me when I fuck up
And party while I cry
I look so big on paper
I feel so fucking small
Wanna die and you don't care
Just stride on down the hall
Suicide suicide
Read the paper, wonder why
Turn the light out, then you cry
It's you fault, you made me die
So frozen I can't love
When I was born my mama cried
And picked me up with gloves
Girls, they kick me in the eye
Want answers to the tests
When they get them they drive off
And leave me home to rest
Hold my head
Make me warm
Tell me I am loved
Give me hope
Let me cry
Make me feel
Give me touch
Lying in the hall
I'm gone no one remembers me
A picture on the wall 'He was such a bright boy The future in his hands...'
- Or a spineless human pinball
Shot around by your demands
Goin' to sleep and when I die
You'll look up and realize
Then look down and wipe your eyes
Then go back to your stupid lives
Aw shit

I think it's more about how parents put so much pressure on their kids to get good grades, but it just makes their kids angry and depressed.
Great song! Sad but so so true. Why do poele have to be shitheads?
good ass song by DK
DK - in summary, nothing but truthfuly awsome shit this song has a painful obvious message that some people at my school need to get before something bd happens to them
You never thought about bullying? Jesus H. Christ you moron!
And i believe it's "I hate my parents" not "Parents hate me"
This is probably irrelevant 2 years later but I think it is Parents hate me. In the lyric book it says "Parents hat me" which i assume is a typo for hate.. i also hear that :P

maybe it was different 20 years ago, but now it seems jocks/bullies are the one's getting straight A's, and they're getting spoiled. At least where I go to school anyway. Good song though.
Vicki probably thought her intense bullying would never help drive someone to suicide. Probably.
