The Grouch Lyrics
Now I'm just another shitty old man
I don't have fun and I hate everything
This world owes me so fuck you
I drank a six pack of apathy
Life's a bitch and so am I
The world owes me so fuck you
I had a young and optimistic point of view
Wasted youth and a fistful of ideals
I had a young and optimistic point of view
Oh my God, I'm turning out like my Dad
I'm always rude, I've a bad attitude
The world owes me so fuck you
I don't have sex 'cause I can't get it up
I'm just a grouch sitting on the couch
The world owes me so fuck you

This song is so fucking great. I love it! I think he's saying he doesn't want to be old, be a "grouch." He wants to stay young and be himself, optimistic. He's saying his dad was old and a grouch I'm guessing. Nothing went the way he planned... so he thinks the world owes him. I think most of us feel that at one point or another. amazing song

He's singin of the fact of life, no matter how hard you try you always end up fucked sooner or later, the world owes me so FUCK YOU!

yeah, this song is about you getting fucked up after wishing and wanting so much to become something you wanted to be, and even if you did become what you wanted, it's not what you wanted in the end.

yeah, i agree with carl, basically just a fear of becoming another old asshole like a lot of us fear

"Wasted youth and a fistful of ideas I had a young and optimistic point of view "
Things didn't turn out the way he planned so he feels the world owes him... Great song.

i think he is singing about what he doesn't hope to become.

I think he's basically saying that no matter what you want to be when you're young, this is what you're most likely to end up as.

karl i think your damn right

i agree with colourmepunk182

great song. a good sogn to listen to when you're feeli0n down about the way life is going. you realize other people hate life too. so you don't feel as bad.
