Periphery

[Verse 1]

Oh, the periphery

They throw good parties there

Those peripheral idiots

Always have a bite to bear

Bear it, if you can

If you really want to

[Verse 2]

Go to the periphery

Have them celebrate your name

Have them forge you a pedigree and then you'll be

Left to run the races, lame

Run it if you want

If you think it’s worth it

But not with me

[Chorus]

'Cause I don't appreciate

People who don't appreciate

All that loving must've been lackin' something

If I got bored tryin' to figure you out

You let me down

I don't even like you anymore at all

[Verse 3]

Oh, the periphery

I lost another one there

He found a prettier girl than me

With a more even-tempered air

And if he wants her, he should get her

'Cause I think he thinks she's worth it

And maybe they'll move from the periphery

Buy themselves their own plot of land

And I'll care in a different capacity, I'll just be

Hoping he makes a good family man

And if he finds himself yearning

For his throne on the silly side

There's nothing wrong, as long as he's learning

Besides, he can take it up with his bretheren

Or with his bride, just not with me

[Chorus]

'Cause I don't appreciate

People who don't appreciate

All that loving must've been lacking something

If I got bored tryin' to figure you out

You let me down

I don't even like you anymore at all

All that loving must've been lacking something

If I got bored tryin' to figure you out

You let me down

I don't even like you anymore at all

[Outro]

Oh, the periphery

Oh, the periphery

Oh, the periphery

Oh, the periphery

Stole you away

Stole you away

Away, away

Stole you away, away
