Whatever (listen)

I drew a picture, I drew it ugly
'Cause that's how I liked it so that's what I done.
If you're in need of a prettier picture,
You'll be so disappointed if you think I'm giving you one.

I made a road, I made it crooked
All full of potholes and covered in trees.
If you're in need of someone to reach you,
Although faith can move mountains, I hope you're not counting on me.

I built a bridge that shook and trembled
Just to watch it in the breeze.
Whatever craziness my thoughts resemble,
They still belong to me.

I have been down to the river.
I have looked to the other side.
There are wonders there, I figure
That you're not going to see if you're looking to me for a guide.

The books I'm reading, I read 'em backwards
'Cause that's how I get them, so that's what I do.
Why should you care how I read things
Just 'cause I don't get the story according to you?

I built a bridge that shook and trembled
Just to watch it in the breeze.
Whatever craziness my thoughts resemble,
They still belong to me.
Whatever dreams I have assembled,
They all belong to me.
