Need An Excuse

I hate birthdays
One thing that I got to do
It's supposed to be filled with something
But there's nothing to do

They always say "hey birthday kid, have a nice day
Happy birthday and great day day"
But it's all just fake anyway
They just need an excuse

They need an excuse, something to say
But they don't mean it anyway
They need an excuse for something to say
I wish they'd shutup anyway

And I hate Easter, one great big pastel glow
It's supposed to be fun,br> 'Cause that's what they told you
But you don't even know what it stands for, do you?

They say "hey kid eat some candy and go to church
and say hallelujah"
But it's all just fake anyway
They just need an excuse

They need an excuse, something to say
But they don't mean it anyway
They need an excuse for something to say
I wish they'd just shutup anyway

And I hate chain letters
Obligation hanging over my head
Supposed to write a letter to a girl named Dharma
Or else I'll have seven years of bad kharma

It's supposed to be communal bonding and great
But I feel guilty just the same
It's all just fake anyway because they need an excuse

They need an excuse, something to say
But they don't mean it anyway
They need an excuse for something to say
I wish they'd shutup anyway
