Lyrics:
I'm a dumb teen boy
I eat sticks and rocks and mud
I don't care about the government
And I really need a hug
I feel stupid (stupid)
Ugly (ugly)
Pretend it doesn't bother me
I'm not very strong but
I'll fuck you up if you're mean to bugs
It's getting cold down here underneath the weather
I skipped class to sit with you
I really like your spotty sweater, if
Ladybugs are girls
How do you make kids together?
What's it like in a female world?
I bet it's just so much better
I just turned fourteen
And I think this year I'm gonna be mean
Don't mess with me, I’m a big boy now and I'm very scary
I punch my walls, stay out at night, and I do karate
Don't message me 'cause I won't reply, I wanna make you cry
Ain't that how its s’posed to be? Though it isn’t me
Boys will be bugs, right?
(Boys will be bugs, right?)
I'm a dumb teen boy
All I wanna do is quit
My mum told me that she's worried
And I couldn't give a shit
I have friends who understand me
Their names are spider, beetle, bee
They don’t say much but
They have always listened to me
The other boys at school
Think it's cool to hate your parents
But they’re lying all the time
The bugs advised that I should let 'em
And if you wanna cry
Make sure that they never see it
Or even better yet
Block it out and never feel it
I just turned fourteen
And I think I know everything
Don't mess with me, I'm a big boy now and I'm very scary
I punch my walls, stay out at night, and I do karate
Don't message me 'cause I won't reply, I wanna make you cry
Ain't that how it's s’posed to be? Though it isn’t me
Boys will be bugs, right?
(Boys will be bugs, right?)
Just turned fourteen
And I think this year I'm gonna be mean
(Just turned fourteen and I think I know everything)
Just turned fourteen
And I think this year I'm gonna be mean
(Just turned fourteen and I think the world revolves around me)
Don't mess with me, I'm a big boy now and I'm very scary
I punch my walls, stay out at night, and I do karate
Don't message me 'cause I won't reply, I wanna make you cry
Ain't that how it's s’posed to be? Though it isn’t me
Boys will be bugs, right?
Don't mess with me, I'm a big boy now and I'm very scary
I punch my walls, stay out at night, and I do karate
Don't message me 'cause I won't reply, I wanna make you cry
Ain't that how it's s’posed to be? Though it isn’t me
Boys will be bugs, right?
(Don't mess with me, I'm a big boy now and I'm very scary
I punch my walls, stay out at night, and I do karate

hey ik im a year late but no matter which concert, the music is alwyas gonna be generally loud. if you have problems going to the cinema like is do because everything is loud, try staying at the middle where it's gonna be the least sound. the back generally will have sound booming as well so not great im physically unable to enjoy a concert or cinema or a rave without ear plugs and shades (everyone dresses funny to go to concerts, no one will care youre wearing sunglasses at night). it's not because we have sensory issues (i call it common sense lol) that we cant enjoy these things. have fun!

[@eury4959]

If you're a musician yourself, I recommend going to an all ages jazz club. It wouldn't be as quiet as this one, but the noise is quite intellectual since everybody is just talking about the music and hyping the performers up. When it comes to speaker noise, it wouldn't really be as loud as concerts because it's jazz, most of the instruments are acoustic.

I remember the first time watching this video I cried bc it’s just so beautiful, and I just got out of a Cavetown concert and cried during this song in remembrance. Robbie has shaped me into the person I am today and I’m so happy I stuck around to experience this in person.

I don’t know what it is about Robbie, but his voice, aesthetic, and smile make me feel nice. I’ve got really bad paranoid schizophrenic disorder, but Cavetown never fails to make me calm and happy.

i will never understand how when British people sing they completely loose their accents- edit: omg thanks for all the likes guys

[@spinach4616]

True 💀 its because American music is EVERYWHERE and singing with a British accent can be a lil odd, many random letters are emphasized which makes it sound SOO british. I'm from London and my accent isnt that strong but when I sing it increases a lot.
