Lyrics Mainstream Kid - Brandi Carlile

Mainstream Kid

I’m gonna fit in
I’m on the list, I’m gonna get in
Haven’t you heard and don’t you know who I am?
I’m with the Joneses, I’m their best friend
I’ve come to saturate the market
To perpetuate the hip kid
I was born so I could fall into line (ooh)
I am a legend in my own mind
Can I blend in with your kind?
I need you to liberate me
You, the masses, educate me
Hold my fist into the air
Declare a social victory
You can own me, you control me
Individuality
Has never stood a chance against you
Jump into the mainstream
Your revolution
Is in the way of my confusion
I need someone to tell me who I am (ooh)
Because I’m under this illusion
I came to separate the classes
To place the fails above the passes
And there has never been a better time (ooh)
To set the bar beneath the masses
Can I blend in with your kind?
I need you to liberate me
You, the masses, educate me
Hold my fist into the air
Declare a social victory
You can own me, you control me
Individuality
Has never stood a chance against you
Jump into the mainstream
I need you to liberate me
You, the masses, educate me
Hold my fist into the air
Declare a social victory
You can own me, you control me
Individuality
Has never stood a chance against you
Jump into the mainstream
Your revolution into the mainstream kid (ooh)
Your revolution into the mainstream (ooh)
Your revolution into the mainstream kid (ooh)
Your revolution into the mainstream kid (ooh)
Jump into the mainstream kid
