Lyrics
Got a mother wishing for a daughter This time please hold the social disorder Choking on the Apollo stage It feels like it’s getting worse with age His mind just doesn’t work the way it oughta

Buddy Holly Wannabe Squinting through Coke bottles just to see Let’s not blame it on the AC/DC It’s the Buddy Holly guarantee Kicked to the curb before you start to dream He’s just got undiagnosed _ _ _ _

The caffeination always works just fine When he’s older he trades it for a powdered line Watching opportunities block the drain They always said rock would rot his brain He’d sign his soul away for a funky bassline

Buddy Holly Wannabe Squinting through Coke bottles just to see Let’s not blame it on the AC/DC It’s the Buddy Holly guarantee Kicked to the curb before you start to dream He’s just got undiagnosed _ _ _ _

Twice-exceptional child prodigy It’s nothing special, it’s just neurology Twice-exceptional schoolyard spaz Counting on six fingers all the friends he has

Buddy Holly Wannabe Squinting through Coke bottles just to see Let’s not blame it on the AC/DC It’s the Buddy Holly guarantee Kicked to the curb before you start to dream He’s just got undiagnosed _ _ _ _

Buddy Holly Wannabe He could be so much more, don’t you see? He’s distracted, all abstract and not discreetly It’s the Buddy Holly ideology His ears are ringing with blunt hypocrisy He’s just got undiagnosed _ _ _ _
