Well when I was a young boy
My mama told me:
"Blood's thicker than water"
That's what she told me
I don't give a damn anymore
I can't see what makes me so
I remember your criticism
I can't be an organism of your kind
Yeah (yeah), yeah, yeah
Well when I was a little older
My papa said:
"Son yours does not cry
Get your act together boy
Then get the hell out of my sight"
I don't give a damn anymore
I can't see what makes me so
I remember your criticism
I can't be an organism of your kind
Yeah (yeah), Yeah (yeah)
Your kind
Yeah (yeah), Yeah...
You watch the circles
You treat me so bad
I don't dare think it over
Yeah...(mutter)
I can't give.
I said "yeah!"
I don't give a damn anymore
I can't see what makes me so
I remember your criticism
I can't be an organism of your kind
Yeah (yeah), Yeah (yeah)
Your kind (x3)
Harassed
Harassed stands as a defining track within Puddle of Mudd's early post-grunge catalogue, capturing the raw emotional intensity that propelled the band to mainstream success. Released during the era of their breakthrough album Come Clean, the song showcases the group's signature blend of heavy guitar riffs and introspective lyrics. While often overshadowed by the massive commercial success of Blurry, Harassed demonstrates the band's ability to craft anthemic rock that resonates with themes of personal struggle and exhaustion. The recording remains a staple of their live performances, highlighting the vocal dynamics and melodic sensibilities that characterized their initial rise in the early 2000s rock scene.
