I've Had It Up To Here

Don't want to find myself homogenized Don't want to become the very thing that I despised Don't need my mommy feeding me culture with a spoon Don’t want to end up with as much edge as a balloon Don't want my ideas polluted by mediocrity Don't want my sentiments diluted This is important to me I tried to give my best to you But you plugged up your ears And now I just can't take no more I've had it up to here Don’t want to be the another boy next door Don’t want to pander to the masses anymore Don’t need the whole wide world to love me Don’t want to win the human race Don’t want my music to be less well-known than my face Don’t want to compromise my art for universal appeal Don’t want to be mass consumed I'm not a happy meal I tried to give my best to you But you plugged up your ears And now I just can't take no more I've had it up to here I moved out from the sticks Nobody believed in me Had to climb my way up Overcome all kinds of adversity Oh, if you think I need approval from the faceless throng That's where you're wrong So wrong I tried to give my best to you But you plugged up your ears And now I just can't take no more I've had it up to here I’ve had it I’ve had it I’ve had it up to here
