lyrics

If you listen closely to what I say
None of it makes much sense
But it’s in the way that I say it
That you hear my profane eloquence
You really should believe me
You’d be a fool not to
I’m the only hope you’ve got
On this precipice I brought you to

What is pure truth
It’s relative all the same
First it’s here and then it’s there
Like a pea and shell game
First it’s here and then it’s there
Like a pea and shell game

You think I’m being a bit tricky
Well just maybe I am
You bought into it whole hog
You bought into the spam
I get my delight
By watching you squirm
I’m a sophisticated human host
And you are merely a worm

I have always been above you
Yeah that’s been our dynamic
I can pick apart your fragile ego
And send you into a panic
Your first mistake was loving me
I am so not worth the bother
You put me on a pedestal
And I beat you like your father
