Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
I want to live life duty free Let my instincts take the lead I want to take what I can get Don't want to choose don't want to beg I want down from this family tree I don't need no upward mobility I want to unlearn what I've learned Want to unearn what I've earned Want to burn my bridges down Find a place I can't be found This is my manifesto destiny Tear down this awkward mobility Because I'm tired of standing upright The taller we become the more dollars we can grab from that highest branch And then step on your back given the chance But not me I'm a bipedal backpedaler just as sure-footed as I can I'm no high society man No suit and tie, no Dapper Dan I'm no happy family man I'm no husband, ain't no dad I'm a goddamn caveman This upward mobility is more than I can understand I won't stand, no, I won't stand for it I won't stand, no, I won't stand for it I won't stand, no, I won't stand for it I'd rather be all hands and knees Yeah, I'd rather be swinging in the trees With the monkeys and the junkies and bums and sloths and jailbird canaries Yeah that's me I'm a bipedal backpedaler from sea to shining sea
