And so he’s stuck in over analysis
It’s the only way he knows how to cope
To ponder his existence after being put down
It’s all that he’s ever known

And so he must stand up
And say just what he believes
Cause after years of being silent
He refuses to be on knees
–
He says excuse me sir
I cannot answer you
It’s hard to reply
When someone’s looking down on you

He says excuse me sir
I cannot answer you
It’s hard to reply
When someone’s looking down on you
–
And so the father
asks his daughter what to do
He doesn’t know just how to react
“you tore down your old door, painted it in to
A landscape on acid, a fucking view”

And so she must stand up
Say just what she believes
Cause after years of being silent
She refuses to be on knees
–
She says excuse me sir
I cannot answer you
It’s hard to reply
When someone’s looking down on you

She says excuse me sir
I cannot answer you
It’s hard to reply
When someone’s looking down on you
