Personal
If I ever feel like my ego just isn't big enough, I listen to Troublemaker. Weezer exemplifies big-headedness as they offer up a character who makes his own rules, and even breaks those! It's all about being the best, being unique, being far too cool for anyone to comprehend--all the while being an annoyance to the authorities. The constant rhythm and rapid-fire vocals don't give you a moment to slow down, and that's precisely why I like it. I love to properly embody the song by blasting it at full volume while cruising down the lanes of a quiet suburb.
Lyrics
Put me in a special school, Cuz I am such a fool, And I don't need a single book to teach me how to read. Who needs stupid books? They are for petty crooks, And I will learn by studying the lessons in my dreams. So turn off the T.V. Cuz that's what others see, And movies are as bad as eating chocolate ice-cream. They only sicken me, Don't let me play football, I'll sack the quarterback and jack the brother of the ball. I'm a troublemaker, Never been a faker. Doin' things my own way, And never giving up. I'm a troublemaker, Not a double-taker. I don't have the patience to keep it on the up. I picked up a guitar, What does this signify? I'm gonna play some heavy metal riffs and you will die. You wanted arts and crafts, How's this for arts and crass? Wuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh, That's Right! I'm growing out my hair, I'm moving out to Cherokee. I'm gonna be a rock star, And you are gonna bear with me. Cuz I can't work a job, Like any other slob. Punchin' in and punchin' out, And suckin' up to Bob. Marryin' a beeyotch, Havin' seven keeyods. Givin' up and growin' old, And hopin' there's a god. I'm a troublemaker, Never been a faker. Doin' things my own way, And never giving up. I'm a troublemaker, Not a double-taker. I don't have the patience to keep it on the up. I'm gonna be star, And people will crane necks, To get a glimpse of me, And see if I am having sex. And studying my moves, They try to understand, Why I am so unlike, The singers in the other bands. I'm such a mystery, As anyone can see, There isn't anybody else, Exactly quite like me. And when it's party time, Like 1999, I'll party by myself because I'm such a special guy. I'm a troublemaker, Never been a faker. Doin' things my own way, And never giving up. I'm a troublemaker, Not a double-taker. I don't have the patience to keep it on the up. Keep it on the up. (I'm a troublemaker.) Keep it on the up (UP!). (I'm a troublemaker.) Keep it on the up. (I'm a troublemaker.) Keep it on the up (UP!). (I'm a troublemaker.) Never giving up.
