"The Excuse" lyrics

"The Excuse"

Well son, are you feeling the pressuer yet?
You know where you're from and you best not forget
You can twist and contort it, but I know you'll regret
If you compromise all the blood that you've sweat

And I feel it now when I'm forced to produce
Cause this gift I've been given I've learned to abuse
I've asked for this rope and I've made a fine noose for myself
It's no excuse, it's no excuse

I heard they're like assholes
I know I can be one
So I'll be the best one I can be
I won't compromise
I just can't organize
My thoughts with it hovering over me
So we'll scream when we've finished triumphantly!

Fuck the deadlines (fuck the deadlines)
Fuck the deadlines (fuck the deadlines)
Fuck the deadlines (fuck the deadlines)
Fuck the deadlines (fuck the deadlines)

Well son, are you feeling the pressuer yet?
You know where you're from and you best not forget
You can twist and contort it, but I know you'll regret
If you compromise all the blood that you've sweat

And I feel it now when I'm forced to produce
Cause this gift I've been given I've learned to abuse
I've asked for this rope and I've made a fine noose for myself
It's no excuse, it's no excuse

I heard they're like assholes
I know I can be one
So I'll be the best one I can be
I won't compromise
I just can't organize
My thoughts with it hovering over me
So we'll scream when we've finished triumphantly!

Fuck the deadlines (fuck the deadlines)
Fuck the deadlines (fuck the deadlines)
Fuck the deadlines (fuck the deadlines)
Fuck the deadlines (fuck the deadlines)
And you!
