Scream Lyrics

Supposed to act my age,
Supposed to act mature.
I've got better things to do
Than listen to you.

I listen and listen and listen
And listen and listen.
I get fed up.

[agonizing screams]

I'm supposed to keep it together,
Supposed to keep my cool.
Yeah, I keep my cool.
I'll show you how I keep my cool.

I blow my cool, I blow my cool.
I blow my cool all over the place,
All over the place.

[agonizing screams]

I might be a big baby,
But I'll scream in you ear
'Til I find out, until I find out
Just what it is I am doing here.

Until then, until then,
Until then, until then. . .

[agonizing screams]

I think he's reflecting back to his days in the all boys school. Everyone telling him to shut up and act this way.
