Boss Of Me Lyrics

Yes, no, maybe, I don't know
Can you repeat the question?

You're not the Boss Of Me now
You're not the boss of me now
You're not the boss of me now
And you're not so big

You're not the boss of me now
You're not the boss of me now
You're not the boss of me now
And you're not so big

Life is unfair so I just stare
At the stain on the wall where
The TV'd been but ever since
We've moved in, it's been empty

Why I, why I'm in this room
There is no point explaining

You're not the boss of me now
And you're not so big

You're not the boss of me now
You're not the boss of me now
You're not the boss of me now
And you're not so big

Life is a test but I confess
I like this mess I've made so far
Grade on a curve and you'll observe
I'm right below the horizon

Yes, no, maybe, I don't know
Can you repeat the question?

You're not the boss of me now
You're not the boss of me now
You're not the boss of me now
And you're not so big

You're not the boss of me now
You're not the boss of me now
You're not the boss of me now
And you're not so big

You're not the boss of me now
You're not the boss of me now
You're not the boss of me now
And you're not so big

You're not the boss of me now
You're not the boss of me now
You're not the boss of me now
And you're not so big

You're not the boss of me now
You're not the boss of me now
You're not the boss of me now
And you're not so big

Life is unfair

Boss Of Me Song Chart

John Flansburgh's estranged brother, who was born Earl Flansburgh but later became known as Paxus Calta, has stated that several of TMBG's older songs are about him, which John denies. However, John did admit that this song is, in fact, about his brother. (thanks, Beau - Phoenix, AZ)

This is the theme song to the TV show Malcolm In The Middle, and was recorded specifically for the show. A full-length version that runs about 3 minutes is on the soundtrack to the TV show.

Malcolm In The Middle uses other They Might Be Giants songs in the show from time to time. A running joke on the show was that Malcolm's dad likes terrible music from the '70s.

This won the 2001 Grammy for Best Song Written For a Motion Picture, Television, or Other Visual Media.
