lyrics

not strong enough not smart enough
to make the grade
not fast enough not quick enough
at the draw
no sense at all you never had any
wherewithal
please understand
you're not the sharpest tool in the shed

Oh no! there goes confidence!
you've been exposing your weakness
it's the cardinal sin
if you keep this up
they won't invite you again
oh yeah! here comes confidence!
now you're sticking your landing
you can't even begin
if you keep this up
they might invite you back in
(what are you thinking? what are you thinking?
what are you stupid stupid stupid stupid?)

not suave enough no charm enough
to sweep them off their feet
not calm enough you're shaking there
like a leaf
no self-esteem your skin is hardly
thick enough
can't trust you
you never look up when you speak

oh no! there goes confidence!
didn't i warn you
as the room starts to spin
and - oh shit don't look now
but it's happening again!
oh yeah! here comes confidence!
clean off the grim
from your windowpane
so we can all come and marvel
at the shape of your brain

when you finally find your people
will you gather them around
to watch you teeter totter teeter totter?
teeter totter teeter totter
and may we float on our hopes
at the end of our ropes

hanging by our threads
our posture benefits from pain
so we play out guilty pleasures
of our regret and self-disdain
and i can feel my body choke me

not smart enough you really just aren't
good enough
you're just not the type that we need in this community
so self-obsessed you really are
a narcissist
go away now
your face
makes me queasy
