They throw good parties there
Those peripheral idiots
Always have a bite to bare
Bear it if you can
If you really want to
Go to the periphery
Have them celebrate your name
Have them forge you a pedigree and then you'll be
Left to run the races lame
But if you want
If you think it's worth it
Go now, with me
Cause I don't appreciate
People who
Don't appreciate
All that loving must've been lacking something
If I got bored trying to figure you out
You let me down
I don't even like you anymore at all
Oh, the periphery
I lost another one there
He found a prettier girl than me
With a more even-tempered air
And if he wants her, he should get her
Cause I think he thinks she's worth it
And maybe they'll move from the periphery
By themselves, or on a plot of land
And I'll care in a different capacity, I'll just be
Hoping he makes a good family man
And if he finds himself yearning
For his throne on the silly side
Nothing wrong as long as he's learning
Besides, you can take it up with his brethren
Or with his bride, just not with me
Cause I don't appreciate
People who
Don't appreciate
All that loving must've been lacking something
If I got bored trying to figure you out
You let me down
I don't even like you anymore at all
Oh, the periphery
Oh, the periphery
Oh, the periphery
Oh, the periphery
Stay away
Stay away
Away, away
Stay away, away
Oh, the periphery They throw good parties there Those peripheral idiots Always have a bite to bare Bear it if you can If you really want to Go to the periphery Have them celebrate your name Have them forge you a pedigree and then you'll be Left to run the races lame But if you want If you think it's worth it Go now, with me Cause I don't appreciate People who Don't appreciate All that loving must've been lacking something If I got bored trying to figure you out You let me down I don't even like you anymore at all Oh, the periphery I lost another one there He found a prettier girl than me With a more even-tempered air And if he wants her, he should get her Cause I think he thinks she's worth it And maybe they'll move from the periphery By themselves, or on a plot of land And I'll care in a different capacity, I'll just be Hoping he makes a good family man And if he finds himself yearning For his throne on the silly side Nothing wrong as long as he's learning Besides, you can take it up with his brethren Or with his bride, just not with me Cause I don't appreciate People who Don't appreciate All that loving must've been lacking something If I got bored trying to figure you out You let me down I don't even like you anymore at all Oh, the periphery Oh, the periphery Oh, the periphery Oh, the periphery Stay away Stay away Away, away Stay away, away Explain Request ×
