Popularity is for the birds

Alone is a rough place to be
So please won't you invade my privacy
Cause I'm sick of pretending to be proud
So don't ya dare criticize the in crowd

But then again I'm sure
I could blend in just fine
If I made sure I never
Voiced opinions of mine

If I smiled through grit teeth
And if I bit my tongue
I could be every everything
To everyone

But that's not the life
That appeals to me
Cause popularity
Is for the birds

If you wanna waste your time
With assholes that's fine
Cause popularity
Is for the birds

Alone is a rough place to be
You'll choke on your goddamn hypocrisy
Cause they're just along for the ride
So pleasantries fall by the wayside

But then again I'm sure
I could blend in just fine
If I made sure I never
Voiced opinions of mine

If I smiled through grit teeth
And if I bit my tongue
I could be every everything
To everyone

But that's not the life
That appeals to me
Cause popularity
Is for the birds

If you wanna waste your time
With assholes that's fine
Cause popularity
Is for the birds
