The Lyrics
Grrrr!
Not right
(It's rough) It's rough
(It's rough) My voice is rough
(It's rough) Too rough
(It's rough) Too frickin' rough
(It's gruff) It's gruff
(It's gruff) A bit too gruff
(It's gruff) Real gruff
(It's gruff) Too bloody gruff
Hey buddy
What?
Can't converse with you, my voice is too gruff
Well...
My throat is
Filled with grit
My voice is
Made of grit
Said you wanna hear it?
Well, I'm singin' with it
Just listen to me
So gruff, buddy
Now you've heard it
Can you tell why I hate it?
It's too gruff, buddy
Much too gruff
My voice is gravelly and hard to hide
It's like I've swallowed nails all my life
Never has my rough voice worked for me
It's just too gruff, messed up my life
It's so damn full of grit
I hock sand when I spit
Just listen to me
So gruff, buddy
So full of grit
You could compare me to Clint
Clint Eastwood, buddy
That's not good
Sick of people askin' to do impressions
"Do Dirty Harry!" they keep on sayin'
So please hear my embarrassin' confession:
That film, ain't seen it, so stop requestin'!
Is it grav'lly? It's grav'lly
But how grav'lly? A lot
It's so grav'lly and shit, you should know
Listen buddy
It blows!
Livin' with a voice that's so damn low
Feels like I speak with my toes
Can't get girls with a voice this low
Not smooth like Connery, no
Too gruff, my voice is simply too gruff
Quite rough, my voice is overly rough
Too gruff, my voice is too bloody gruff
Real rough, my voice is just way too rough
My whole life, my voice has been this rough
Yes, as a toddler I was gru-huff
My mum and dad were shocked, but they stood by me
As I rumbled through life
I was gruff when I was teethin'
And it kept goin' when I started speakin'
Copped flak fro-o-om teachers teachin'
Thought I was jokin', nope, sure had them reelin'
Sounds like I've been smokin' since I was five
But that's not how my voice got so gruff, nope, it's just me
(Pitch is down)
It's really rough
(Not made up)
It's not a lie
Sounds like I swallowed rocks, yep, it's that gruff
Yeah
It's so gruff that I can't use a phone
Cause it sounds obscene, you know
At times I wish it was just low
I could sound just like Tom Jones
Will it be worse when I'm fully grown?
I hope not, cause that would blow
How it could get worse, I don't know
Subsonic levels of low
Too rough, my voice is pretty damn rough
Real gruff, my voice is way too damn gruff
Quite rough, my voice is really damn rough
Too gruff, my voice is simply too gruff
Good speech I'm manglin'
I'm real pissed off, dang it!
My voice is too gruff!
I'm sick of angstin'
It's closer to wangstin'
'Bout my voice, it's gruff!
The ladies, they don't want it, yeah
The fellas laugh cause I have it, yeah
Gonna wallow in my own deep sorrow
Voice is too low and just way too gruff
Gonna wallow, you could call me shallow
Cause I'm emo 'bout how it's too rough
[repeat under next two lines]
The ladies freak out at it, yeah
The fellas mock cause I have it, yeah
Hey
[instrumental]
It's too, too, too, too, too, too, too, too, too, too, too, too, too, too, too rough!
It's too, too, too, too, too, too, too, too, too, too, too, too, too, too, too gruff!
