Big Dumb Boy

from Negative Space by Swain

lyrics

Live for toil,
maybe then you'll earn it.
Save yourself;
“we’re not paying for it.”
It's a joke,
when you think about it.
This story’s getting old.

Gather your stones.
Bring out your torches.
Run amok.
Bonfires burning crutches.
Age old narrative.
This story’s getting old.

Rape yourself through Yale,
won't you?
Judge yourself a version of her future.
Laying in your sunbeam.
You’re big boy American Dream.

Big dumb boy, it doesn't make sense to me.
Where do you find the joy?
Where's your heart? I think I saw it yesteryear?
You’re tearing us apart.

Old boys’ club.
Calling all the shots.
Shut us down.
Can you connect the dots?
Left unheard.
It’s a cruel, cruel plot.

When I’m strong,
You call me arrogant.
When I’m cute,
I am incompetent.
Left unheard.
It’s a cruel, cruel plot.
