They say I need some Rogaine to put in my hair
Work it out at the gym to fit my underwear
Oakley makes the shades that transform a tool
You'd hate for the kids to think that you lost your cool

I'mma do the things that I wanna do
I ain't got a thing to prove to you
I'll eat my candy with the pork and beans
Excuse my manners if I make a scene
I ain't gonna wear the clothes that you like
I'm finally dandy with the me inside
One look in the mirror and I'm tickled pink
I don't give a hoot about what you think

Everyone likes to dance to a happy song (Hey, hey)
With a catchy chorus and beat so they can sing along (Hey, hey)
Timbaland knows the way to reach the top of the charts
Maybe if I work with him I can perfect the art

I'mma do the things that I wanna do
I ain't got a thing to prove to you
I'll eat my candy with the pork and beans
Excuse my manners if I make a scene
I ain't gonna wear the clothes that you like
I'm finally dandy with the me inside
One look in the mirror and I'm tickled pink
I don't give a hoot about what you think

No I don't care
I don't care

I'mma do the things that I wanna do
I ain't got a thing to prove to you
I'll eat my candy with the pork and beans
Excuse my manners if I make a scene
I ain't gonna wear the clothes that you like
I'm finally dandy with the me inside
One look in the mirror and I'm tickled pink
I don't give a hoot about what you think

    Lyric Correction:Am I the only one who thinks it's: "Oakley makes the shades in Transformers 2"?

    General Comment:!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    So the song is obviously about not conforming to whatever is cool. The music video further fits into this theme with the whole range of freak shows who have become Internet celebrities.

    General Comment:I honestly feel this song screams individualism. It strikes right into the way I feel. I'm sick of not being able to be who I am because of all the dumb people are practically clones of each other. The more I become myself the more I am rejected by the idiots, but in turn I make some pretty awesome friends. I'm ready to become who I am, because I don't give a hoot about what you think. You can mock me all you want because I'm different, but i'm more comfortable with being who I am than being a clone of society.

    General Comment:This song makes me think of "the who sell out" and the shot on the album with the giant can of Heinz baked beans. Kind of a stretch but just a thought.

    General Comment:This song is amazing! It's basically just about being yourself and not conforming to the trends that are out there today.

    My Interpretation:This song really makes me think about Chris Cornell for some reason. Maybe its that Timbaland reference.
