Song Lyrics: Fat Lip
Storming through the party like my name was El Nino
When I’m hangin out drinking in the back of an el camino
As a kid, I was a skid and no one knew me by name.
I trashed my own house party cause nobody came.
I know I’m not the one you thought you knew back in high school
Never going, ever showing up when we had to.
Is it attention that we crave don’t tell us to behave,
I’m sick of always hearing act your age.
I don’t want to waste my time
Become another casualty of society.
I’ll never fall in line
Become another victim of the conformity
And back down.
Because you don’t
Know us at all we laugh when old people fall.
But what would you expect with a conscience so small.
Heavy metal and mullets it’s how we were raised.
Maiden and priest were the gods that we praised
Cause we like having fun at other peoples expense and,
Cutting people down is just a minor offence then,
It’s none of your concern; I guess I’ll never learn.
I’m sick of being told to wait my turn.
I don’t want to waste my time
Become another casualty of society.
I’ll never fall in line
Become another victim of the conformity
And back down.
Don’t count on me, to let you know when.
Don’t count on me; I’ll do it again.
Don’t count on me; it’s the point you’re missing.
Don’t count on me, cause I’m not listening.
Well I’m a no good nick lower middle class brat,
Back packed and I don’t give a s*** about nothing.
You be standing on the corner talking all that cuffing.
But you don’t make sense from all the gas you be huffing.
Then if the eggs don’t stain you’ll be ringing off the hook,
You’re on the hit list wanted in the telephone book.
I like songs with distortion, to drink in proportion.
The doctor said my mom should have had an abortion.
I don’t want to waste my time
Become another casualty of society.
I’ll never fall in line
Become another victim of the conformity
And back down.
Waste my time with them
Casualty of society.
Waste my time again,
Victim of the conformity
And back down.

This tone is obviosly that he is seeing this negitively and he was acting negitivly in the song. He says that he should not be counted on in the song 4 times in a row. I think that he is puting himself in to a lower state and that it is his fault that his life is messed up. It says in the song “Storming through the party like my name was El Nino” when it actually means he is storming through the party acting like some one he is not. alright I’m gonna finish the rest at school.
