Lyrics

It don't mean a thing what they all say
You never liked them anyway
It's just too bad they can't take it

You've never done them wrong
But you never liked their favorite song
And it's just too bad they can't take it

Chorus:
It's not like you to even bother
It's not like you
To let them bring you down
Could you imagine
That there's so much satisfaction
From your bitter times
Don't ever let them bring you down

So hollow, they follow
And they stand there one by one
And their leader, it's too bad
They'll never make it
