Ever since I was a kid I never did fit in

While all the other fish were learning how to swim

I was dying

To be a member of the tribe



And when I went to school my head was in a cloud

The teacher said"you will never be allowed

So don't try

To be a member of the tribe"



Now what can a square man do

To fit in a big round world? 

If I am a hand and life is a glove

I stick right out like a big sore thumb



Why don't you come over to see me sometime

I do impersonations from saturday night live

I'm dying

To be a member of the tribe



Now what can a square man do

To fit in a big round world? 

Life might be a parade for some

But I stick out like a big bass drum



I eat big macs and I watch mtv

I've been a k mart shopper since 1983

Cause I'm trying

To be a member of the tribe
