Dropout Lyrics

What's the matter with you?
You've been down all day
What happened to you
To make you feel that way?
Baby aint that a shame when they call you those names
Dropping out from school
Guess it wasn't so cool


Everyone, everyone needs, some space to breathe
All the time we have been blind, so blind
Yeah we just couldn't see it,
Yeah you're too old to cry
Too young to die
What happens in the in between?
Don't you think its strange, things just change
Its just a burnt out town a burnt out scene
You've been a dropout ever since you've been seventeen
Lonley child when will you see?
You need to be free
Often times people they find
They're not blind
Yeah, they just don't see

Lonely child listen to me
Its just a burnt out town
Its just a one horse scene
Gotta get away, gotta get away, you got to
Hanging out in the parking lot at Dairy Queen
You've been a dropout ever since you've been seventeen
gotta get away, gotta get away, you got to.

Urge Overkill are an alternative rock band from Chicago that attracted underground attention in the late 80s and early 90s. While their ironic reshaping of 70's arena and glam rock left them marginalized during the height of grunge, they managed to appear on the charts with their cover of the Neil Diamond classic "Girl, You'll Be a Woman Soon" from the Pulp Fiction soundtrack, which hit #50 on the US Charts, and #11 on the Modern Rock charts. Their single "Sister Havana" also received some airplay. They disbanded in 1997 due to various addictions and in 2004 reunited, although they did not take their drummer Blackie on tour with them. They are currently touring the US, and a new album of Urge Overkill material is anticipated.
