about

This is my most popular request and download from the album and is simply a social statement on the state of individuality today. A tattoo, which was once a unique identity, is commonplace these days... and while it was once tagged to a group or personality type, these days it's almost more unique to not have any at all. By the way, I don't have anything against tattoos or the people who wear them...

Tattoo lyrics

I never had a goatee, I never pierced my nose
I never poked a hole in my lip,
Though there's no harm in that, I suppose
But I still think I might get a tattoo
I'm still thinkin' about gettin' a tattoo
I still think I might get a tattoo
A picture of you, in red, white and blue (yeah)

I don't wear chains and leather, I don't shave my head
I don't ride a Harley motorbike
I drive a Suburu instead
But I still think I might get a tattoo
I'm still thinkin' about gettin' a tattoo
I still think I might get a tattoo
A picture of you, in red, white and blue (yeah)

This is how I am, and I'm not trying to change
A little shot in the arm perhaps, I don't think that's so strange
This is how I am, and this is the way I've been
It's probably how I'll stay, til only God knows when

Don't have a diamond earring, I don't have a tooth that's gold
And I don't play in the NBA
The agents say I'm just a little too old
But I still think I might get a tattoo
I'm still thinkin' about gettin' a tattoo
I still think I might get a tattoo
A picture of you, in red, white and blue (yeah)
