Do you think that I will just stand by 
While you pontificate from up on high? 
Your words fall on deaf ears 
No-one's heard of you down here 
So turn cartwheels, its no big deal to me. 
 
    G                    Em           F#

    Though you pour your scorn on all below 
 
G               Em                 B     E 
No-one cares so there's nowhere to go.   Let go. 
 
One day soon you'll have to understand 
You cannot dictate the way I am. 
I could talk to you 
But I've got better things to do 
And how you feel is no big deal to me.
