“ You’ll make it so damn big for all the world to see. “
“ Let’s push it back another week. “
“ I wanna be next up forever, find a way to never hit my peak. “
“ I kinda wish I was still a virgin, trying to finally see what sex is like. “
“ Forever I’ll be second in line. “
“ Some day they’ll be talking about me, right now, they’re just walking around me. “
“ My God, are you growing without me? “
“ This is my imagination, this is how it looks and sounds. “
" I gotta go so much bigger, so they can never shut me down. “
“ I’m kinda scared of graduation. “
“ ‘Cause who am I when this is done? “
“ I wanna be next up forever, so the best is always yet to come. “
“ Somebody help me I gotta go so much bigger, so everybody’s proud of me. “
“ I’ll be next up forever ‘Cause I don’t know what’s coming next “
“ I know I gotta grow up some time, but I don’t think I’m ready yet “
“ I know I gotta grow up some time, but I’m not fucking ready yet. “
“ Your tongue fell out, it’s right there on the ground. “
“ You can’t. You got no mouth. “
“ So it ain’t all bad now. :
“ What doesn’t kill you, makes you ugly. “
“ Life gives you lemons, at least it gave you something. “
" So if I break my face and I don’t look so great, my face is just my face. “
“ So if I break my face It ain’t my darkest day. “
“ My face is just my face. “
“ You roll your eyes a hundred times, at every phony line. “
“ Are your eyes ok? They rolled away, right down the interstate. “
“ But at least you can’t cry today. “
“ I’ve been so good I’ve been helpful and friendly. “
“ I’ve been so good, why am I feeling empty? “
“ I’ve been so good But it’s still getting harder. “
“ Where the hell is the karma? “
“ Why are you asking me why? “
“ My days and nights are filled with disappointment. “
“ Fine. Oh, no everything’s fine. “
“ I’m not sure why I booked today’s appointment. “
“ What am I normal or not? “
“ Am I crazier than other patients? “
“ Right, I’ve done everything right. So where’s the karma, I’ve lost my patience. “
“ I’ve been working my ass off. “
“ Still I’m lonely and stressed out. “
“ Time I know we’re out of time. “
“ But what if sad thoughts come and I can’t stop it? “
“ Bye, I don’t wanna say bye. “
“ If only I could keep you in my pocket to give me some diagnosis. “
“ Please give me instructions, I promise I’ll follow. “
“ I tripped on my ankle and fractured my elbow. “
“ I try to explain the good faith that’s been wasted. “
“ But after an hour it sounds like complaining. “
“ Wait, don’t go away, can I lie here forever? “
“ You say that I’m better, why don’t I feel better? “
“ I’m starting to think it ain’t working for me. “
“ Should I be good, should I be good this year? “
“ Frankly I’m scared of clowns and get togethers get me down. “
“ But when you talk, it’s like ‘wow I’m not crazy’. “
“ Don’t kill me, ‘cause I’m just the messenger. “
“ I already went and took my temperature. “
“ I’m not sick, I took all my vitamins. “
“ Yeah, I’m not sick, I’m just kinda different. “
“ They tell us to be different, but no one told me I could go too far. “
“ Frankly I feel insane. “
“ But you say you feel the same and suddenly it’s like ‘hey I’m not crazy’! “
“ I’ve never seen someone quite this strange before. “
“ You’re just like me, you took all your vitamins. “
“ You’re just like me and you take delight in it. “
