lyrics

All these guitar players calling themselves musicians
All of these three-finger piano playing "musicians"
They learned the power chord, then must have just got bored
Figured there was nothing more
Is this who I'm trying to impress?

I never considered myself much of a musician
I guess that's why I have such a hard time with "musicians"
It's not I don't want you to have a point of view
I just wish that you'd tone it down
I mean, who are you trying to impress?

Wish I hadn't spent so long trying to be a musician
I may be a lot of things now, but not a musician
Maybe the second group I dropped out to do should have been a larger clue
"The stuff that you're writing doesn't impress"

Mammas, don't let your babies grow up to be musicians
It's a road with no end or reward for most musicians
I mean, just look at me, about to turn 30 with no record, no band, no degree
Just an ear that's harder to impress
