I Don't Care About Your Band Songtext

von Kevin Devine & The Goddamn Band

I don't care about your band
I thought I could; turns out I can't
I mean no malice - I promise, man
I just don't care about your band

But I care that you're an honest guy
An ambassador for peace & light
A struggler who forgives himself
A human being, and nothing else

See, I found out about your band
Via blogosphere, via hidden hand
You were DIY, you were test-tube made
I wasn't biting either way

But I care that you're a voice for change
Who lives the things she sings onstage
A struggler who forgives herself
A human being, and nothing else

In the middle
We're feeling less-than
Boxed up in riddles
Self-conscious second guessing
If you're listen
There's a lesson
It's transcendent, if you listen

I'd like to be a better guy
No easy targets
No cheap drive-bys
But I'm a part-time monster who
Contradicts himself
I'm a human being
And nothing else

And I don't care about your band
