Well I’m holding up a piece of glass to the sun
Well I might fool around but sometimes I get things done
All of you bureaucrats, yeah you never have any fun
And I’m holding up a piece of glass to the sun

Well I might be a dreamer, but at least I’m not a screamer.
Don’t laugh, it’s been a lot of screaming done

Well I’m home today ’cause I got suspended from school
For insubordination to one of their strong-armed fools
I’m surprised he got so mad, I must’ve hit him in the jewels
And I’m home today ’cause I got suspended from school

Well my mom will be so mad, my family life’s gone bad
And my dad will think its a challenge to a duel

Well I’m holding up a piece of glass to the sun…….
