JERK 

I need ta work 
On bein' a jerk 
I think. 

'Cause the guys tha' stink 
An' the guys tha' drink 
Score on the cute chick 

Ya see, I don't stink (much) 
An' I don't drink (as such) 
An' I been told 
(By young an' old) 
Tha' I'm fun ta touch... 

BUT 

Bein' Me ain't enough 
Fer the cute bit of fluff 

She pushes me buttons 
With huggin' an' lovin' 
Then bails 
Sails away 
"Seeya another day" 
And the other stuff they say 

An' I'm supposed ta live with it 
An' dig it 
Care, but not give a shit 
"Don't remember" but "Don't forget" 
An' learn from the enlightenment... 

An' I sigh an' cry 
Then git high as I try ta go on 
An' then it dawns on me 
That I don't have ta try ta see 
The songs they're singin' ta me 

'Cause bein' me is pretty cool 
I'd rather be me 
Than be you
