lyrics

 

Johnny’s turning his right hand, his mind is hardly relaxed

his eyes focus the street, his bike is brandnew and fast

he’s in a crazy rock band, got a chrome chain ‘round his neck

and he doesn’t mind about a one night stand & his guitar is black –
he says: some say I’m an arrogant asshole, no matter what I do

but don’t think that I'm bothered, I don’t care if u do – how about you?

 

Ted is politician of a growing party in this land

And he uses the slogan “I can”, but means the money he sticks in the sand

just has one legislative period to get some cash aside

but he pretends to be a clean one - in future he just needs a firm to hide 

he says: some say I’m an arrogant asshole, even my wife hates how I do

but don’t think that I'm bothered, I don’t care if u do – how about you?

 

Susie got her halftime job, this little extra is all she needs

‘cause her bills get paid by her ex, that’s enough – they have two kids

spends her money to save her beauty, from the glory days that she had

she was never really open minded, so she was never feeling bad –

she says: some say I’m an arrogant asshole, no matter what I do

but don’t think that I'm bothered, I don’t care if u do – how about you?

 

we think we act pretty normal, love making music all the time

we’re practising hard & write new songs & we are glad that this is a rhyme

like the folks before we all have mistakes, mean and ugly on one side

but soft and gentle on the other hand, all in all with a very strong pride –
& we say: some think we’re arrogant assholes, no matter what we do

there are times when we really bother, sometimes don’t care if u do

some think we’re arrogant assholes, no matter what we do

there are times when we really bother, sometimes don’t care if u do –

how about you? - how about you?
