You KNOW why you like me?
Because I'm the effigy society burns
on it's altar
and I make that little pang in your
heart *
You like me because-I tell you
all about my dirty unwashed hair
and my dirty unwashed lovers
and my dirty unwatched health
If I were a millionaire
or a fake
or YOU
I might not have the same all out
beat 'em up
scrape your throat like a pointed
fish.bone kind of impact
You KNOW why you like me?
Because you see me/
but you don't gotta be me.
