lyrics

I am standing on a karaoke stage
singing Fidelity
feeling pretty good
because everyone is dancing

suddenly I see a man making gestures
when I read his lips it looks like
”STOP IT”

and he points a middle finger
up in the air

I didn't know what it meant in middle school
but everyone else seemed to know

I'm turning twenty today, so
now I know
and I wonder

am I bad, should I stop singing?
am I sad, should I get off the stage?

but this is karaoke
and everyone can sing here
even those who can't really sing
so why is he saying fuck you to me?

it takes some guts to get on this stage
I wish he would disturb
someone with better self esteem

someone who will
shake that finger off as if it were dust
I guess I will shake that finger off
as if it were dust

and I will keep singing
until the song is done
then I will come back
because the stage is mine
