ettrick shepherd - looking for joe lyrics

[bridge]
always been the one to make jokes and bluff
wrote this stuff a lot growing up
told my friends that i’d end up blowing up
they said i wouldn’t i wanted to show them up
and that’s the reason i ain’t slowing up
doing the only thing that i know and love
so i’ma pursue music cos honestly i don’t think i’m broke enough

[verse 1]
this is brizzy
my fam knows i’ve been busy
my d-mn clothes are getting sticky
a man who’s only like sixteen
it’s pandemonium
sh-t’s deep, used to think i am the only one
followed the herd, was never really a big sheep
despite that i felt quite discrete
different, demented and distant, indeed
guess i must’ve been deluded and dizzy
cos i was convinced that the problem was with me
felt kind blue like i didn’t belong and would do anything to blend
in like mistique
even if it meant being risky
i didn’t want my friends to think i was p-ss weak
always seemed to be the b-tt of the pliskies
but also the b-tter on the toast so you’ll miss me

[chorus]
let me tell you about the place that raised me
arranged and made me
strange and crazy
came to shape me for the greater good
my family, friends and neighbourhood
let me tell you about the place that raised me
arranged and made me
strange and crazy
came to shape me for the greater good
my family, friends and neighbourhood

[verse 2]
this is indro
we got virgins and nymphos, iphones and flip-phones
jetsons, dumphies and flinstones
a social minefield k!llzone and if so
then we will grow up to become ones
that run on and seek acceptance from not just someone
but me – i know my friends
those who know the start and know the end
they know the corners and know the bends
and still stick around and help me grow again
i’ve been stabbed in the back before
but to be honest mad at all
cos i worship the person i’ve come to be
and to become that person i had to fall
used to be sad and sore
looked at the popular kids and thought they had it all
but that has relevance now because in the
scheme of things that was just a random thought
and that’s the role those five years played
but it got me right here hey?

[verse 3]
in the modern day and age
seemed to be the only one who made mistakes
the lonely one, like a loaded gun
waiting to launch itself but holding on
i used to see it as a curse to be me
didn’t think it was worth it to be
spent my life looking for a certain person
turns out that person was me
every sunny day, every violent storm
every time i thought that my pride was torn
every single internal fight or war
all helped to reach my final form
and i don’t mean to preach at all
but every now and then you gon’ reach a wall
don’t live in the shadow of it
just burst through, don’t matter if you bleed or fall
tears dry and once you’ve finished and packed
you’ll know that it’s true
scars heal but if you pick at the scab
you’re just gonna open the wound
so if you love the person that you became
don’t regret any crucial change
even if you ain’t in regular form
it’s all good man to heck with the norm
