Biography:
Pedro the Lion is an indie rock band from Seattle, Washington. David Bazan formed the band in 1995 and represented its main creative force, backed by a varying rotation of collaborating musicians. After a shifting lineup, Pedro the Lion finally eventually became a one-man outfit. That man is David Bazan. A Seattle native, Bazan cut his teeth playing in hardcore bands before forming Pedro in 1995, taking the band's name from a character he made up for a possible children's book.

Verse 1:
D G D
Dad dad why did you let that man
G D A
push you around like that
G D
you should have beat him down
G D
down to the ground
G D A
down to the ground for that
Prechorus:
G D Em D A
he said son you're still young and you always jump the gun
Chorus:
G D
there's real people in the big big trucks
Em G
that you flip off when they get in your road
G D
you get so hacked but you pay no mind
Em G
to the great big sign that says oversized load
G D
you really think they can go as fast
Em G
as you in your ' 7 trans am
G D
they know you're in a terrible rush
Em A
they're going just as fast as fast as they can
Verse 2:
Dad dad I really don't understand
What driving big trucks has to do with that man
You should've taught him a lesson about being rude
About talking to you with such an attitude
