Outsider Lyrics

I'm an Outsider, outside of everything
I'm an outsider, outside of everything
I'm an outsider, outside of everything
Everything you know
Everything you know
It disturbs me so

I'm an outsider, outside of everything
I'm an outsider, outside of everything
I'm an outsider, outside of everything
Everything you know
Everything you know
It disturbs me so

Everybody tried to push me, push me around
Everybody tried to put me, tried to put me down

All messed up, hey everyone
I've already had all my fun
More troubles are gonna come
I've already had all my fun

Oh yeah, yeah, yeah

Everybody tried to push me, push me around
Everybody tried to put me, tried to put me down

I'm an outsider, outside of everything
I'm an outsider, outside of everything
I'm an outsider, outside of everything
Everything you know
Everything you know
It disturbs me so

Outsider

Written by bass player Dee Dee Ramone, this song is about being on the fringes of society, a place the group inhabited. In 1983, while many rock bands were adding synthesizers and updating their images for MTV, the Ramones stayed true to form on their seventh album, Subterranean Jungle. This and the other tracks on the album didn't move the needle on the charts, but critics and core fans were delighted.

Green Day recorded this in 2002 for the movie The New Guy. Their version was included on The Ramones tribute album We're A Happy Family and on their compilation Shenanigans. In the movie, it was used in a scene where fans charge a stadium dressed like characters from Braveheart. (thanks, Rachel - Waurika, OK)
