My Number One
Re-Union Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I hate my school
I hate the way that all my friends act
It makes me look like such a fool
I hate my car
And my guitar
I can never find the right tone
I hate the scene
And punk wannabes
I hate all the bloody posers
That still act like they're fourteen
I hate tv
And monotony
It's makes me really want to fucking die
Cause that would be exciting
I hate my life and wish
I was never born into this world
I hate my life and wish
I was never ever, never ever born
You say I'm not qualified
To makes decisions on my life
Yet I am still here and you're not
So back the fuck up before I
AHHHHH
