I'm sick of hearing songs
About the boy who was ignored
And the girls who did him wrong
They said that he was shy
And they claimed he wasn't manly
Oh, how that made him cry
But now he's rich and famous
Such a pitty ain't it
They missed the opportunity
To catch a rising star
And to me it seems obnoxious
Mr. Singer are you not just insecure
And now you're singin
Why'd they have to be so superficial
Now you wish they'd be more superficial
It seems to me to be so artificial
So go and write your song
Just know you're the superficial one
You're so superficial
Mr. Folds can take a pass
(Cuz) the doors were so damn angry
They said to kiss his ass
You know a kiss. Myself
(Not sure what's here)
Oh so for all the other losers
The begger is now the chooser
Who'd 've thought you would be
The coolest kid in class
And you're laughing in their faces
At the chance that they have wasted
Cuz the nice guys don't always finish last
And now you're singin
Why'd they have to be so superficial
Now you wish they'd be more superficial
Seems to me to be so artificial
So go and write your song
Just know that you're the superficial one
You're so superficial
I just know that you're the superficial one
You're so superficial
Who are you to say that she's not better off
She could be married
With some children
To a doctor in vermont
And if you're thinking 'bout these girls
It's hypocritical
You're not out of their league
If you're still stuck in their world
And if things for me are well
You know I thank those who helped me
And I won't punish no one else
Cuz I don't need to tell regret
I might forgive, I might forget
Cuz I'm the bigger man
Except maybe say
Go fuck yourself
Why'd they have to be so superficial
Now you wish they'd be more superficial
Seems to me to be so artificial
So go and write your song
But it's you that is the superficial one
You're so superficial
Stupid superficial one
