SLOAN lyrics : "autobiography"

I'm writing young and gifted

In my autobiography


I figured who would know


Better than me




I'm certainly the former


But I'm not so much the latter

But no one's gonna read it


So I'm sure it doesn't matter




When you find that you're the former


Take pride in how you form


And when you find that you're the ladder

Don't let those people walk under you





I'm writing sharp and adult

With my finger on the steam


On the mirror in my bathroom


While I'm applying shaving cream




Which would suggest that I'm the foamer


But how can I be the lather

And something tells me


It's the opposite I'd rather




When you find that you're the foamer


Be careful what you foam


When you find that you're the lather

Don't shave too high, you'll regret it later





La la la la la

La la la la la la


La la la la la la




I've stayed in school this long


But still no one will tell me why


They figured who would know

Better than I




I know I'm a conformer


But I'm sure it doesn't matter

My new friends are all adults

And my old friends all have scattered




When you find you're a conformer


Take pride and swallow whole

But if you're trying to climb the ladder

Don't let people walk over you


Because that's just what they'll do



Don't let people walk over you


Because that's just what they'll do
