Lyrics

You might not like my savoir faire
When I wave my finger flag it seems like I don't care
Make a lousy first impression when I speak without discretion
I'm not good at conversation, never been too debonair

But one thing I know for sure
I just can't take myself...anywhere

It's not that I'm all bad or lackin' in couth
I tend to blame it on my DNA and troubled youth
You can loathe, despise and hate me, even excommunicate me
I can act all matter-of-fact, but everybody knows the truth

When I walk into a room, there's an air of doom and gloom
It's just my own brand of perfume
I just can't take myself...anywhere...I can't take me

I can't change, I won't change
I can't change, I won't change, I like my brains

I do declare you'd best beware, I'm dangerous
Some may say I'm not all there, well, I guess I missed the bus
I went to school, well, at least half the time
It taught me how to cheat in life, hey, isn't that a crime

But one thing's for sure, I just can't take myself...anywhere
But one thing I know for sure, I just can't take myself...anywhere
When I walk into a room, yea there's an air of doom and gloom (can ya feel it)
It's just my own brand of perfume
I just can't take myself...I can't take me

It has a great hair metal vibe, great production, good singing, good lyrics. It is hard to tell where the hook/chorus is, although I don't mind that so much. Reminded of Dream Theater a little bit, but also Buckcherry, if those two bands can be melded. I'd be curious to know what this artist's influences are. GnR?
