'like it or not'

'like it or not'
you can treat me like dirt, the scum of the earth, and i'll probably feel it.
still more you'll know, i won't let it show, i'll not let you believe it.

just like the guy who takes a dive in the stocks,
the kid whose dog was crushed down the block,
this is this, some things just can't stop,
i'll keep my grin, it's the life i'm in. . .
like it or not.

look past where you're at, it goes deeper than that, you need not look too fast.
and if you can't see the joke, i know there's hope, at least i know i can laugh . . .

i may broken inside with nothing to hide, that just makes me more determined.
cause when i'm feeling this way, i got nothing to say and i guess this song's to confirm it. . .
