I seriously doubt that this is the correct interpretation. Simple Plan's stereotypical bubblegum punk whiny teenager lyrics at first listen could pass for a parody, mocking the ridiculousness of 30 year olds complaining about homework and chores. But they aren't being ironic. They're being serious. Am I wrong here? Tell me I'm wrong. 70.67.175.61 (talk) (please sign your comments with ~~~~)
- No, I think you're absolutely right with your interpretation! 213.69.26.162 (talk) (please sign your comments with ~~~~)
- The title text seems to prove your interpretation is right. And I must say your comment is one of the most accurate statements I've ever seen. 18.215.1.197 12:51, 26 May 2013 (UTC)
The interpretation is absolutely correct. Check this video [1], you will find this text "You don't know what it's like to be like me" in the lyrics.--Dgbrt (talk) 13:16, 26 May 2013 (UTC)
