Ben Folds - Rockin` The Suburbs

Let me tell y'all what it's like
Being male middle class and white
It's a bitch if you don't believe
Listen up to my new CD Sha mon

I got shit runnin' throught my brain
It's so intense that I can't explain
All alone in my white boy pain
Shake your booty
while the band complains

I'm rockin' the suburbs
Just like Michael Jackson did
I'm rockin' the suburbs
Except that he was talented
I'm rockin' the suburbs
I take the cheques
and face the facts
That some producer with computers
fixes all my shitty tracks

I'm pissed off but I'm too polite
When people break
in the McDonald's line
Mom and Dad you made me so uptight
I'm gonna cuss on the mic tonight
I don't know how much I can take
Girl give me something I can break
I'm rockin' the suburbs
Just like Quiet Riot did
I'm rockin' the suburbs
Except that they were talented
I'm rockin' the suburbs
I take the cheques
and face the facts
That some producer with computers
fixes all my shitty tracks

In a haze these days
I pull up to the stop light
I can feel that
something's not right
I can feel that someone's
blasting me with hate And bass
Sendin' dirty vibes my way
'Cause my great great
great great Grandad
Made someones' great
great great great Grandaddies slaves

I just drove to the store
For some Preparation H

Y'all don't know what it's like
Being male middle class and white
Y'all don't know what it's like
Being male middle class and white
Y'all don't know what it's like
Being male middle class and white
Y'all don't know what it's like
Being male middle class and white
It gets me real pissed off
it makes me wanna say
It gets me pissed off
and it makes me wanna say
It gets me real pissed off
and it makes me wanna say

Just like Jon Bon Jovi did
I'm rockin' the suburbs
Except that he was talented
I'm rockin' the suburbs
I take the cheques
and face the facts
That some producer with computers
fixes all my shitty tracks
These days
I'm rockin' the suburbs
I'm rockin' the suburbs

Let me tell y'all what it's like
