Careless Songtext
von Ben Kweller

One, two, three, four
Come on

I′m the girl in zebra tights dressed in black
I know who I am, so get the fuck off my back
The kids at school think I'm just a sheep in sight
Herein lies the great divide, I, I-I

I don′t care if you don't understand me, no
I don't care if you don′t understand me, no
I don′t care if you don't

Lifting larger boxes, breaking brittle bones
I got a lot of reasons that I live it alone
The crooked path calls me back more than the straight
Guess you′re gonna have to wait, hey, hey-ay

I don't care if you don′t understand me, no
I don't care if you don′t understand me


Can we put it off till later? No
All the cool kids hate it so
Everything I do is strange
I'm a manic panic, pistol pet
Supersonic, heard of that
I ain't ever gonna change
I don′t care if you don′t

More than sixty-seven ways to skin a squirrel
Zero ways to figure out a fiery girl
All I do is hold my hidey-head up high
I don't even need you to cry, or die, I-I

I don′t care if you don't understand me, no
I don′t care if you don't understand me

Can we put it off till later? No
All the cool kids hate it so
Everything I do is strange
I′m a manic panic, pistol pet
Supersonic, heard of that
I ain't ever gonna change

I don't care if you don′t understand me, no
I don′t care if you don't understand me, no
I don′t care if you don't under-


Stand me
Stand me
Hey-hey
Hey-hey
Ohh
Stand me
Stand me
Hey-hey
Hey-hey
Ohh
