The Cocky One

Music by Shelley and Lyrics by Dave

Verse 1
When I was a little boy they called me prodigious
Didn't know just what it meant but I was sure suspicious
As I got a little older the word became precocious
Little did I know that it really meant atrocious

Chorus
Now I'm just the cocky one
Self confident in my beliefs
Don't question my semantics
Or I will surely give you grief

Verse 2
Wouldn't be so obstinent if you were less adamant
Wouldn't be so obdurate if you were more accurate
My thoughts would be less obscure if you had already found the cure
My world could be less obtuse if your simple mind had greater use

Chorus

Bridge
Your life is a sitcom I will be your laugh track
Suburban doldrums oblivious of my attack

Chorus
