A.D.I (Attention Deficit Individual)

[Intro]
Attention Deficit Disorder, Attention Deficit Disorder, A.D.D...

[Verse 1]
When I was young it's no question, I had A.D.D
That's why the other kids in the yard never wanted to play with me
They'd say, "Matty B, I wish you'd stay away from me"
And at age 6 I was already a failure to be
Cause I'd pull my dick out and let it sway in the breeze
And I'd ask second grade girls just to drop down to their knees
Sorry mum, school's only about wasted fees
Taking other kids and scraping their knees, along the school yard bitumen
And chasing the head master around and trying to piss on him
If he'd been in the toilet I would've tried to shit on him
But I think he would have enjoyed it, cause he liked having faggots hit on him
And everyday we used to get the cuts for calling teachers sluts
And pinchin' young girls' butts
An angry young man who never gave a fuck
Who just loved to cause havoc and just run amock
Like the time I hit my cousin with his Tonka truck
And embedded in his skull
The back wheel got stuck
To the hospital is where he got rushed
And I laughed my ass off as I watched the blood gush

[Chorus]
But that's the way of an Attention Deficit Individual
Sent to this earth, simply just to shit you all
Fucking up for me was like an everyday ritual
But nowadays I'm just a drug habitual
That's the life of an Attention Deficit Individual, sent to this earth, simply just to shit you all
Fucking up for me was like an everyday ritual, but nowadays I'm just a drug habitual

[Verse 2]
All my dad used to do was cast insults
Pick faults, walk around the house and sulk
He ignored me for a month when I was 4 years old
Cause I was an excitable little kid that loved to scold
And when mum and dad went got divorced
He took the liberty of rippin' mum off of course
And I'm pretty sure he did it without remorse
'Cause mum had issues, and rarely gave him intercourse
To be a pro surfer was my childhood dream
But dad made sure any opportunities were ripped at the seams
I'd save up to compete by the contest date
But dad would hide my board out of spite and hate
Nice one mate
You fucking did me proud
Destroyed my dreams because I act too loud
And you wonder why nowadays I wanna slap you down
Treat you like a bitch and fuckin' crack you now
If I wanted to, dad I could probably have you drown
But I'd sooner rock the mic and just act the clown
And just to make the whole damn package complete
At age 15, my dad put me out on the street
And he said I'm sorry you just can't live with Kay and me
Because we just can't cope with your A.D.D

[Interlude]
In my younger and more vulnerable years, my father gave me some advice that I've been turning over in my mind ever since

[Chorus]
But that's the way of an Attention Deficit Individual, sent to this earth, simply just to shit you all
Fucking up for me was like an everyday ritual, but nowadays I'm just a drug habitual
That's the life of an Attention Deficit Individual, sent to this earth, simply just to shit you all
Fucking up for me was like an everyday ritual, but nowadays I'm just a drug habitual

[Verse 3]
An over-diagnosed condition in a profit based system
Kids, what are they giving them?
Brain numbing shit like Ritalin
The doctor doesn't care as long as the companies are giving it
They are even bulk billing it
For the kick backs the companies are giving them
Here's a new symptom cure, kid try it
Help yaself, help the pharmaceutical giant
Put down mum's crystal vase, Matthew, don't throw that
Otherwise it's off to the doctor for some Prozac
Not exactly nutritious for kids, and everyone knows that
But how do I stop this disturbed kid upsetting me?
You better bite the bullet and get some Dexamphetamine
This problem must be addressed, you just can't let it be
But maybe there's no problem its just the world upsetting me
That's why I say fuck the medications and object so heavily
Instead I ride waves, rock mics and eat healthfully
Do my own thing and the world can just let me be
(Let me be, let me be)

[Interlude]
I think I may know what the problem is, I think maybe Timmy is suffering from something called Attention Deficit Disorder, or A.D.D
It's very common in kids his age

[Chorus]
But that's the way of an Attention Deficit Individual, sent to this earth, simply just to shit you all
Fucking up for me was like an everyday ritual, but nowadays I'm just a drug habitual
That's the life of an Attention Deficit Individual, sent to this earth, simply just to shit you all
Fucking up for me was like an everyday ritual, but nowadays I'm just a drug habitual

[Outro]
An angry young man with a bad case of A.D.D
An angry young man with a bad case of A.D.D
A.D.D
A.D.D
