Story Behind the Song
Wizard desired a song of irony, so he took what was positive lyrical content and made it sound really nasty...
Although most initially think the song's a direct insult to someone, the lyrics actually indicate a want to be rid of voices which keep the subject depressed.
Lyrics
I'm so sick of the way you look!
Lookin' in the mirror,
Hatin' what I see...
Too many faces,
Starin' back at me...
I lost my job, my home, and my girl...
And now my sanity...
Gonna take a long trip -
Far away from me.
I feel all the death and despair
From Lonely Street,
Time to make a change
For the good -
beat a hasty retreat.
There's no time for you anymore!
Get out of my head!
Go someplace else instead!
I've been used, abused
And accused.
Now, its your turn
For you to lose...
And losing it all
Is not an excuse...
So get the hell out!
'Cause I'm so sick of you...
Gonna find a new job,
And a place to stay.
Gonna start a new life,
So get outta' my way!
I've no room for the voices,
You're just dragging me down...
Gonna turn the tables on ya' -
Turn 'em all around...
You've been here too long,
Its time for you to leave...
This is the last straw,
And you better believe
That
There's no time for you anymore!
Get out of my head!
Go someplace else instead!
('Cause)
I've been used, abused
And accused.
Now, its your turn
For you to lose...
And losing it all
Is not an excuse...
So get the hell out!
'Cause I'm so sick of you...
(Solo)
(Chorus Repeat)
I'm so sick of the way you look!
