Underwhelmed Lyrics

She was underwhelmed, if that's a word
I know it's not, cause I looked it up
That's one of those skills that I learned in my school

I was overwhelmed, and I'm sure of that one
Cause I learned it back in grade school
When I was young

She said, "you is funny", I said, "you are funny"
She said, "thank you" and I said, "nevermind"
She rolled her eyes, her beautiful eyes

The point is not the grammar, it's the feeling
That is certainly in my heart
But not in hers

But not in hers, but not in hers
But not in hers, but not in hers

We were talking about people that eat meat
I felt like an ass cause I was one
She said it's okay, but I felt like I just ate my young

She is obviously a person with a cause
I told her that I don't smoke or drink
She told me to loosen up on her way to the L.C

She skips her classes and gets good grades
I go to my courses rain or shine
She's passing her classes while I attend mine

While I attend mine, while I attend mine
While I attend mine, while I attend

She wrote out a story about her life
I think it included something about me
I'm not sure of that, but I'm sure of one thing
Her spelling's atrocious

She told me to read between the lines
And tell her exactly what I got out of it
I told her affection had two Fs
Especially when you're dealing with me

I usually notice all the little things
Once I was proud of it, she says it's annoying
She cursed me up and down and rolled her Rs, her beautiful Rs

She says I'm caught up in triviality
All I really wanna know is what she thinks of me
I think my love for her makes me miss the point

I miss the point, I miss the point
I miss the point, I miss the point
I miss the point, I miss the point
I miss the point, hey mister

“Underwhelmed” is a cutesy teen song. It was a poem I made up in second year university. It’s got a bunch of puns in it and stuff, which is kind of weird, because I find that that’s a very Canadian thing to...
