[Verse 1]
The Earth it did crack open
On the day that I was born
And a thousand merry pranksters
Came dancin' through the storm
I laid cradle bound
A howlin' out the wind
Not knowin' years to come
I'd be shoutin' over din

[Pre-Chorus 1]
I suck information through the holes in my skull
As my belly gurgles hungry my mouth is always full
[Chorus]
I am Antipop, I'll run against the grain till the day I drop
I am Antipop, I'll run against the grain till the day I drop
I am Antipop, I'll run against the grain till the day I drop
I am the Antipop, the man you cannot stop

[Verse 2]
As a young man
I plug into the tube
But the stench of all that pretense
I cannot muddle through
I lay on my back
And scan the radio
All that comes out my speakers
Is a steady syrup flow

[Pre-Chorus 1]
I suck information through the holes in my skull
As my belly gurgles hungry my mouth is always full

[Chorus]
I am Antipop, I'll run against the grain till the day I drop
I am Antipop, I'll run against the grain till the day I drop
I am Antipop, I'll run against the grain till the day I drop
I am the Antipop, the man you cannot stop

[Verse 3]
I stood by watching
And I seen 'em come and go
I seen 'em make that million
Then vanish in the snow
They come upon you
Like a pack of rabid hounds
As they slobber in your ears
And purge you with their sounds

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Pushing misinformation through the holes in my skull
My belly gurgles nauseous and still my mouth is full

[Chorus]
I am Antipop, I'll run against the grain till the day I drop
I am Antipop, I'll run against the grain till the day I drop
I am Antipop, I'll run against the grain till the day I drop
I am the Antipop, the man you cannot stop
I am Antipop, I'll run against the grain till the day I drop
I am Antipop, I'll run against the grain till the day I drop
I am Antipop, I'll run against the grain till the day I drop
I am the Antipop, the man you will not stop
