[Verse 1]
Of all my stoned digressions
Some have mutated into the truth
Not a spoof
You are the bold expression
Of all your parent's loss
Which you pause, there's no us
[Chorus]
Can't be what you ought to be
Gotta be what you wanna be
Take it with pride and like a dragonfly
Dragonfly wants a piece of pie
But he is so strung out
Shake me off the knife because I want to go home
Shake me off the knife because I want to go home
Shake me off the knife because I want to go home
Shake me off the knife because I want to go home
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 2]
Cursed to be named after jazz songs
High school principal, show and tell
Preach and yell
Ghostly Iraqian starship
Ghostly I turn out and go
No more things
No more lines
[Chorus]
Can't be what you wanna be
Gotta be what you ought to be
Take it with pride and like a dragonfly
Dragonfly wants a piece of pie
He is so strung out
Shake me off the knife because I want to go home
Shake me off the knife because I want to go home
Shake me off the knife because I want to go home
Shake me off the knife because I want to go home
