lyrics

Woke up this morning steaming mad
Something was wrong
Though I couldn't put my finger on it right away
But anyway
Pieces of my life were decidedly bad
So I figured I'd focus on feeling
Pissed off at the people I blame

So I stomped out slammed the door
And found myself out in the street
Where everyone was smiling
And everyone was sweet
And every smile enfuriated me
Beyond belief
Don't you losers know that we're all gonna die?

What's your problem? Why you looking at me like that?
What's your problem?

Almost got into at work
Someone said something that pisses me off
Though I can't remember what it was
Or why it does
But we were separated lucky for that jerk
So all of a sudden there's nothing to do
And no one to punch

So I stormed into the bathroom
To slap some water on my face
And I looked into the mirror
And I saw that in my place
Was a snarling cornered animal
Both predator and prey
And I heard him as he locked on to my eyes

What's your problem? Why you looking at me like that?
What's your problem?

I want to stare into the brighter side
And fill my spirit with its light
I will be strong yes I will turn the tide
I 'm tough enough to look inside
What's the problem?

What's your problem? Why you looking at me like that?
What's your problem?
What?

Ok
I'm gonna get a grip on things
From now on I'm gonna give thanks
For my life every day
And let me say
I still see all the things that stink
I've just decided to fight it
In more productive ways

'Cause now I see the bitter faces
Screwed on tight by rage
And I understand the feeling well
'Cause once I was the same
And I know they see me smiling
And they think that I'm insane
And I hear the question churning in their minds

What's your problem? Why you looking at me like that?
What's your problem?
What's your problem?
What's your really really really big problem?
WHAT?
