[Verse 1]
I'll take any drug in the whole damn world if you'll only notice me
I'll mainline poisons by the score, notice me
Break any law and I'll hurt anybody, notice me
Or I'll be a pop star and I'll stand on stage, for God's sakes, notice me

[Verse 2]
I'll drink anybody into the ground, notice me
Or I'll kick the teeth out of anyone here, come on and notice me
Wear the clothes and cut my hair if you'll only notice me
Or I'll cut my wrists and slash my face, for Christ's sakes, notice me

[Chorus]
Who told him that it mattered?
Who told him that anyone cared?
He's got an overgrown sense of his own importance
No one's really bothered around here
He was such a quiet boy, never any trouble before
He was never any trouble before

[Verse 3]
I'll get a big car and drive like a maniac, notice me
Make a lot of money and tread on you, notice me
I'll tell you any lies that you want to hear, notice me
Or I'll kill myself while you are watching
[Chorus]
Who told him that it mattered?
Who told him that anyone cared?
He's got an overgrown sense of his own importance
No one's really bothered around here
He was such a quiet boy, never any trouble before
He was never any trouble before
