I'm not just some dilettante
If you'll excuse me, I've got names to drop
You think my lyrics don't make sense?
Well, maybe you're a little dense
Pretentious? Moi? Don't be absurd
Sure, I use some twenty dollar words
But brother, I'm the salt of the Earth
And while my band might be subpar
And I'm stuck here tending bar
I hold my own with all the punk rock stars
My politics are so correct
I march along in perfect step
And all my pals think like I do
That's how I know I've got a clue
Now let me make this crystal clear
You point and laugh at all that I hold dear
But I've got the respect of all my peers
And they're allowed to take the piss
But if you cross me then I'll shake my fist
And tell the internet about it
I'm a big man
It's time for me to show my ass
And pass some rumors on as fact
Now don't you dare call me a clown
I'll have my lawyer shut your website down
I went on tour with NOFX
I didn't really have a job with them
But I'll have you know they're personal friends
I got to ride Fat Mike's giraffe
And we all sat around and laughed
At everyone who's sick of my act
Little big man
I'm a big man
Little big man
Screeching Weasel are a punk rock band from Chicago, Illinois, formed in 1986. Considered one of the most influential bands in the pop-punk movement of the 1990s, they have released a vast discography characterized by catchy melodies and ironic and often self-critical lyrics. Their sound is a blend of classic punk rock, power pop and melodic hardcore, with influences from bands like The Ramones, Buzzcocks and Green Day. The band has gone through several lineups over the years, but frontman Ben Weasel (Ben DeLape) has always remained the central figure. Among their most notable albums are "My Brain Hurts" (1993), "All the Songs About You" (1995) and "How to Make a Punk Rock Record" (2001). Screeching Weasel have helped define the sound of modern pop-punk, influencing numerous subsequent bands. Some of their most representative songs include "Teenage Wasteland", "She's My Girl" and "The Ballad of Ben Weasel".
