Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Start, stop and start
Stupid acting smart
Flirting with the flicks
You say it's just for kicks
[Verse 2]
You'll be the victim of your own dirty tricks
You got yourself to tease and displease
[Verse 3]
Doors swinging wide
You walked in to hide
Looking at your feet
Failures complete
[Verse 4]
Saw you and me on the coin-op TV
Frozen in fear every time we appear
[Verse 5]
I'm not surprised at all and really, why should I be?
See nothing wrong, see nothing wrong
So sick and tired of all these pictures of me
Completely wrong, totally wrong
[Verse 6]
Go walking by
Come another guy
Jailer who sells personal hells
Who'd like to see me down on my fucking knees
Everybody's dying just to get the disease
[Verse 7]
I'm not surprised at all and really, why should I be?
See nothing wrong, see nothing wrong
So sick and tired of all these pictures of me
Completely wrong, totally wrong
[Verse 8]
I'm not surprised at all and really, why should I be?
See nothing wrong, see nothing wrong
So sick and tired of all these pictures of me
Oh, everybody's dying just to get the disease
[Verse 9]
Everybody's dying just to get the disease
Everybody's dying just to get the disease
