There was always something wrong with me
I couldn't quite identify it
Whenever someone spoke my old name
Well I tried to deny it
It was like I had on a suit
That didn't quite fit me right
So I gazed through the eye of a needle
And I saw the light
They used to call me Larry
God what an awful name
They used to call me Larry
Used to drive me completely insane
I found out I didn't have to be
Who I thought I was
I could be this whole other person
A dude with a buzz
I could take away all of the stigma
Without being contrary
I found out I need not remain
This guy named Larry
Things been going well for me
Got a job that I love
And a big old house
Ever since I changed my name
I don't stand around
And grouse, grouse, grouse
