I'm Not Deaf... I'm Just Ignoring You

You're always yelling to my headScreaming things that
I know yetDon't do this and don't eat that
Don't you fart and don't grow fat
Stay off drugs, never have faith
Have safe sex or masturbate
I'm not deaf...I'm just ignoring you!
I'm not deaf...I'm just ignoring you!
I'm not deaf...I'm just ignoring you!
I'm not deaf...I'm just ignoring you!
I have a life and it's all mine
Don't you dare to touch it when I feel fine
And if you don't like the way I live
I'm sorry but I won't change just to give
To give you the feeling it's under control
Cause being myself means being free at all
I'm not deaf...I'm just ignoring you!
I'm not deaf...I'm just ignoring you!
I'm not deaf...I'm just ignoring you!
I'm not deaf...I'm just ignoring you!
Would you please shut up so I can tell you this
Keep your mouth shut cause it smells like fish
Just leave me the fuck alone
Please, shut up my head's turning into stone
And always when you tell me what I should do
Remember I'm not deaf, I'm just ignoring you
I'm not deaf...I'm just ignoring you!
I'm not deaf...I'm just ignoring you!
I'm not deaf...I'm just ignoring you!
I'm not deaf...I'm just ignoring you!
I'm not deaf...I'm just ignoring you!
I'm not deaf...I'm just ignoring you!
I'm not deaf...I'm just ignoring you!
I'm not deaf...I'm just ignoring you!
I'm Not Deaf... I'm Just Ignoring You
