I wanted to change the world
But I could not even change my underwear
And when the shit got really really out of hand
I had it all the way up to my hairline
Which keeps receding like my self-confidence
As if I ever had any of that stuff anyway
I hope I didn't destroy your celebration
Or your Bar Mitzvah, birthday party or your Christmas
You put me in this cage and threw away the key
It was this 'us and them' shit that did me in
You tell me that my life is based upon a lie
I casually mention that I pissed in your coffee
I hope you know that all I want from you is sex
To be with someone that looks smashing in athletic wear
And if your haircut isn't right you'll be dismissed
Get your walking papers and you can leave now
Don't know what to want from this world
I really don't know what to want from this world
I don't know what it is you wouldn't want from me
You have no right to want anything from me at all
Why don't you take it out on somebody else?
Why don't you tell somebody else that they're selfish?
Weepy coward and pathetic...
Who's gonna be the one to save me from myself?
You'd better bring a stun gun and perhaps a crowbar
You'd better pack a lunch and get up really early
And you should probably get down on your knees and pray
It's really fun to look embarrassed all the time
Like you could never cut the mustard with the big boys
I really don't know who the fuck you think you are
Can I please see your license and your registration?
Don't know what to want from this world
I really don't know what to want from this world
I don't know what it is you wouldn't want from me
You have no right to want anything from me at all
Why don't you take it out on somebody else?
Why don't you tell somebody else that they're selfish?
Weepy coward and pathetic...
So Jesus hasn't come in here to pick you up
You'll still be sitting here ten years from now
You're just a sucker but we'll see who gets the last laugh
Who knows, maybe you'll be the next queen of Denmark

Sinéad Marie Bernadette O'Connor (Dublino, 8 dicembre 1966 – Londra, 26 luglio 2023) è stata una cantautrice irlandese di fama internazionale. Conosciuta per la sua voce potente e il suo stile musicale che mescolava elementi di pop, rock, folk e musica tradizionale irlandese, O'Connor ha raggiunto l'apice della popolarità negli anni '90 con album come "The Lion and the Cobra" (1987) e "I Do Not Want What I Haven't Got" (1990). Quest'ultimo, contenente il singolo simbolo "Nothing Compares 2 U", ha venduto oltre 10 milioni di copie in tutto il mondo. La sua carriera è stata segnata da momenti controversi, come la distruzione del ritratto del Papa durante un'esibizione televisiva nel 1992, che le costò l'ostilità di alcuni e la stima di altri. Nonostante le controversie, O'Connor ha continuato a pubblicare musica fino alla fine della sua vita, esplorando nuovi generi musicali e affrontando temi sociali e politici nelle sue canzoni. Nel 2017 ha cambiato il suo nome legale in Magda Davitt e nel 2018 si è convertita all'Islam, assumendo il nome di Shuhada' Sadaqat.

My favorite group when I was just a teenager were the Fugees, thanks to them a certain curiosity about english language was born in me. I wanted to know and understand the lyrics of their songs, it wasn't enough for me to be carried away exclusively by their beautiful music.
Sweden and the United States are two countries far from each other, thousands of kilometers separate them, the language, culinary and sporting traditions, I don't feel so categorical about the landscapes, not knowing all of America there may be states that have the same reliefs of the country of northern Europe, but on one thing I am sure
