Can't you see, I'm easily bothered by persistence One step from lashing out at you You wanted to get under my skin and call yourself a friend I've got more friends like you, what do I do? Is there no snacking anymore? What it takes, who I am, where I've been blown You can't be something you're not Be yourself, by yourself, stay away from me A lesson learned in life, known from the dawn of time Respect, walk, what did you say? Respect, walk, are you talking to me? Are you talking to me? Run your mouth when I'm not around, it's easy to achieve You cry to weak friends that sympathize Can you hear the violins playing your song? Those same friends tell me your every word Is there no snacking anymore? What it takes, who I am, where I've been blown You can't be something you're not Be yourself, by yourself, stay away from me A lesson learned in life, known from the dawn of time Respect, walk, what did you say? Respect, walk, are you talking to me? Respect, walk, what did you say? Respect, walk, are you talking to me? Are you talking to me? No way, punk No way, punk Respect, walk, what did you say? Respect, walk, are you talking to me? Respect, walk, what did you say? Respect, walk, are you talking to me? Are you talking to me? Walk on home, boy Walk on home, boy Walk on home, boy
