My Affected Accent

(альбом: O Moon, Queen Of Night On Earth - 2010)

In High School, I was such a brat
I talked with an accent I didn't have
I borrowed from this and I borrowed from that
To make my affected accent
His affected accent
Whoa, yeah

Such a brat, such a brat
I used big words and I talked through my hat
I said, "Reclined", when I should have said, "Sat"
In my affected accent
His affected accent
Whoa, alright

Such a brat, such a brat
Used big words, I talked through my hat
I said, "The aforementioned", when I should have said, "That"
In my affected accent
His affected accent

I droned like William F Buckley does
Uhh
I should have been bullied more than I was
With my affected accent

I had a fake professorial rolling oh
Ohh, ohh
I talked about things that I don't know
In my affected accent
Alright

40 years later I apologized for
My affected accent, whoa-oh
40 years later he apologized for
His affected accent, whoa-oh
