Story Behind The Song

This idea formulated about 10 years ago during the time when I was in a band with lots of 'DRAMA'. What always amazed me was all of the people who said that they knew what was going on and seemed to really get off on 'packin' bones' when the reality was 'They Didn't Know Shit' After countless, pointless tries at correcting the stories I finally came to the realization that accurate or not, they just loved to spread rumors. From that point on all I ever had to say was, say what you want and make up the rest because, .........'You Just Don't Matter'.........

Song Description

Say What You Want And Make Up The Rest Because You "JUST DON'T MATTER"

Lyrics

You Just Don't Matter

Verse 1
I've heard it all before, your latest expose'
It's the same ol' shit, just on a different day
You're still just packin' bones, ain't sayin' nothing new
Been talkin' trash about me, got nothing else to do

Verse 2
You won't look me in the eye and I'd better watch my back
You'll smile to my face, set me up for the attack
You don't really know the story, don't care about the facts
Just love spreadin' rumors, it's your aphrodisiac

Chorus
All your whispered innuendos put my patience to the test
But, you can say just what you want and make up all the rest
With your self righteous opinions and all your useless chatter
When all is said and done, well,
YOU JUST DON'T MATTER

Inst (Chorus Changes)

Bridge
I remember all the stories, you'd always find someone to blame
And, no matter what was said, it just played into your game
When I finally found the answers your lies began to shatter
That's when I realized that,
YOU JUST DON'T MATTER

Verse 3
So all you self important fools still livin' in your dreams
The world that you create's not really what it seems
When I think of all you losers I just break up in laughter
Go ahead, say what you want,
YOU JUST DON'T MATTER

Chorus
All your whispered innuendos put my patience to the test
But, you can say just what you want and make up all the rest
With your self righteous opinions and all your useless chatter
When all is said and done, well,
YOU JUST DON'T MATTER

Outro Chorus
Your whispered innuendos put my patience to the test
You can say just what you want and make up all the rest
With your self righteous opinions and all your useless chatter
When all is said and done, well,
YOU JUST DON'T MATTER
Yeah, YOU JUST DON'T MATTER
Laughter.......................
