There was once a kid
Who had no hope inside his mind
People putting him down
Cause he had a big appetite
Day after day, its all the same;
Put downs, insults, feeling shame
Till that day he turned it all around
Punk rock's what he found
And now he's feeling proud cause
Today's his day

Looking through the aging frame
Now we'll see who's feeling shame
Burnouts, dropouts, out of lucks
Now just looking to pass the buck for a @*%!
Cause they saw the fat kid the other day
And saw how punk rock changed the way
I guess there's nothing left to say
Boy, those shmucks sure did pay
Now he's telling them what to say
I guess there's nothing left for me to say cause
Today's his day

Cause as I see it now,
I know exactly how,
How cruel this world can really be
And now I see a change inside my mind,
And it keeps on pushing me to try and try
To try
To try
