I wrote this novel just for you

It sounds pretentious but it's true

I wrote this novel just for you

That's why it's vulgar

That's why it's blue

And I sang thank you

I sang thank you



I wrote this novel just for Mom

For all the Mommy things she's done

For all the times she showed me wrong

For all the times she sang our song

And I sang thank you Mom

Hello Mom

Thank you Mom

Hi Mom



I read a book about Uncle Tom

Where whitey bastard made a bomb

But now Ebonics rule our song

Those motherfuckers got it wrong

And I asked

Who is uncle Tom?

Who is uncle Tom?

Who is uncle Tom?

You are



I read a book about the self

Said I should get expensive help

Go fix my head

Create some wealth

Put my neurosis on the shelf



But I don't care for myself

I don't care for myself

I don't care for myself

I don't care



I wrote this novel just for you

I'm so pretentious

Yes it's true

I wrote this novel just for you

Just for you

Just for you
