lyrics

Nobody understands me
Nobody understands me now
My Momma don’t get it
Pappa say Boy you better turn that shit down
I don’t make sense to my teachers
I don’t make sense to my preacher now
All I do is go

Yeah Yeah, Oh Yeah Yeah

They say You need an education
They say This boy just needs some ambition
And they say Boy you just need some salvation
I don’t understand
Cause they stand there with their prescriptions
And their goddamn televisions
The got their augmentations
Their ammunitions
All I do is go

GO-GO-GO-GO-GO

They used to sing Tuitti Fruitti
They used to sing Be-Bop-A-Hula-Baby
They used to dance so close to Shama Lama Ding Dong
They’d scream Gabba Gabba Hey
I don’t understand
I don’t understand
Why they don’t understand when I go

Yeah Yeah, Oh Yeah Yeah

I remember that summer
I saved up every dime
And I walked to the counter
Slapped down my dollar
Pointed to a guitar
Said I believe that is mine

It was like for the first time
For the very first time
I could stand up tall
From now I’m gonna stand up tall
I’m a walking tall
And I’m a talking loud
And I’m a singing loud
I’m going GO-GO-GO-GO-GO

Yeah Yeah, Oh Yeah Yeah
