Lyrics
[Verse 1]
It's just something people say
They don't really feel that way
Prep-school gangsters make the call
As the summer turns to fall
[Verse 2]
I was tired but waking up
I was dying to test my luck
Prep-school gangsters barred the way
There was nothing I could say
[Chorus]
Call me jealous, call me mad
Now I've got the thing you had
Somewhere in your family tree
There was someone just like me
[Verse 3]
I was only walking by
Didn't mean to catch your eye
It's just something people say
You could lose some teeth that way
[Bridge]
Call it business, call it war
Cutting class through revolving doors
Yours was better, mine was worse
Till it took on the fifth-gen curse
[Chorus]
Call me jealous, call me mad
Now I've got the thing you had
Somewhere in your family tree
There was someone just like me
[Outro]
It's just something people say
It's just something people say
It's just something people say
It's just something people say
It's just something people say
