Yr Parents - White Boy Problems

lyrics

I'm in my hotel room
Masturbating to the pay-per-view
Too soon?
That's just your point of view
My fingertips
My only defense
This world hates me

I'm on the need-to-know
Where my name come from
Why do I feel so alone
When I'm on every show
In the movies, the TV, and the radio

I'm all I need to know
Feels strange when I stray
Mixing feelings, I know
It's just a free-for-all
Who's to say if the game favors me

Now I've got white boy problems

I've got a fork and a spoon
I'm eating, why aint you?
How did they fund that school
Just give em something to do
My flaws are feathered and few
That's what they say on the news

So much for your so-called tolerance when it's like my feelings never matter just because I've never experienced a different perspective doesn't mean you shouldn't cater to mine maybe you social-justice warriors would be more successful if you weren't so divisive I mean lighten up take a joke it isn't life or death that's right not for me you're blowing it way out of proportion i mean come on racism sexism they're things of the past don't talk to me of prison populations unfair wages housing disparities police state brutality just straighten your hair and act white i mean nice it'll open doors to that liberal paradise where everyone acts exactly the same and I can hide from my white shame
