Lyrics

You keep making me feel

You make me feel like an outsider

Like I’m the odd one out

Sensing exclusion, feeling different

Like it’s a cool kids club

Perceiving a clique or exclusive group

Symmetry’s the only thing allowed

Conformity is the only accepted norm

And you’re making up rules

Establishing rules that benefit only you

That only cater to you

Creating guidelines that favor your interests

You’re saying the words

Using words with personal meanings

That only mean something to you

Expressing thoughts relevant only to you

But I don’t wanna get caught up in this so I keep telling myself

Resisting involvement and self-reminding

There’s nothing you can do nothing you can do about it

Acceptance of limitations and lack of control

Just keep your head up keep your head up don’t sweat it

Encouragement to stay positive and resilient

There’s gold in you don’t let somebody take it

Recognizing inner value, discouraging theft

Just keep your head up keep your head up don’t sweat

Reiteration of staying positive and resilient

Don’t stress out

Emphasizing the need to avoid excessive worry

You’re good at making it look

Portraying competence in appearing put together

Like you’ve got it all together

Imagining improvement by emulating another

And if I was like you

Suggesting a belief in personal enhancement

Then somehow I’d be better

Acknowledging the undesirability of conformity

But I don’t wanna get caught up in this so I keep telling myself

Resisting involvement and self-reminding (repeated)

There’s nothing you can do nothing you can do about it

Acceptance of limitations and lack of control (repeated)

Just keep your head up keep your head up don’t sweat it

Encouragement to stay positive and resilient (repeated)

There’s gold in you don’t let somebody take it

Recognizing inner value, discouraging theft (repeated)

Just keep your head up keep your head up don’t sweat

Reiteration of staying positive and resilient (repeated)

Don’t stress out

Emphasizing the need to avoid excessive worry (repeated)

There’s nothing you can do nothing you can do about it

Acceptance of limitations and lack of control (repeated)

Just keep your head up keep your head up don’t sweat it

Encouragement to stay positive and resilient (repeated)

There’s gold in you don’t let somebody take it

Recognizing inner value, discouraging theft (repeated)

Just keep your head up keep your head up keep your head don’t sweat

Reiteration of staying positive and resilient (repeated)

Don’t stress out

Emphasizing the need to avoid excessive worry (repeated)

There’s nothing you can do nothing you can do about it

Acceptance of limitations and lack of control (repeated)

Just keep your head up keep your head up don’t sweat it

Encouragement to stay positive and resilient (repeated)

There’s gold in you don’t let somebody take it

Recognizing inner value, discouraging theft (repeated)

Just keep your head up keep your head up don’t sweat

Reiteration of staying positive and resilient (repeated)

Don’t stress out

Emphasizing the need to avoid excessive worry (repeated)
