Lyrics
They hate me so much I've begun to hate myself
I don't know if anyone would accept me if I was ugly or disfigured
I'm so dysfunctional, everything around me controls me.
Thank you, Jesus! Thank you, Lord!
For always telling me so
I'm so insecure and all my friends tell me Mel: alcohol's the motherfucking cure
Say it again
I'm so insecure and all my boys tell me Mel: alcohol's the motherfucking cure
I'd raise my hand if I was sure.
What's worse than striving for something that doesn't exist?
Settling for nothing when your dreams miss
Your parents tell you that your special, then they blindly expose you to a world that
Tells you: you need them. You need them to tell you what special really is.
There's a million ways to be special. Even fucking retards are special.
The programs are special. The money makes you special. X2
1st Chorus:
Nothing's ever good enough for them. They take apart your nightmares and they put them in commercials.
You're too fat.
You need make-up.
Your hair's frizzy.
You have split ends.
You need white teeth.
Is your breath fresh?
Your dick won't get hard.
You're not horny enough.
Your clothes suck.
You have no muscles.
You are a pothead.
You need these shoes.
You're so poor.
You're not insured.
Your car could be newer.
Your hair has fewer strands.
But twice as many name-brands.
Nothing's ever good enough for them.
No one's ever truly successful.
Why are we living to consume? X 2
You're probably just depressed.
Is your dog less playful, now that he's getting older?
Check it out: so is mine.
2nd Verse:
2nd Chorus:
Nothing's ever good enough for them. They take apart your dreams and
Put them in commercials.
You could be a model.
You can lose weight.
You can drive faster.
You can learn new words at home on your computer.
You can be a millionaire.
You can live in the suburbs.
You can serve your country.
You can be an idol.
You can feed the world.
You can be an actress.
You can look hot.
You can say smart things.
You can succeed.
You can graduate at home from your computer.
You can find a partner that loves you; Someone to cuddle with you.
You can get big titties.
You can get blue eyes.
You can go to prom.
You can feel comfortable on your period again.
You can be the ruler of the free world.
But you'll never be free.
Can you buy your way in to feeling happy and good again.
Life is a fucking trend.
You can be a ruler of the free world, but
Listen to me people.
You will never be free.
Can you buy your way to feeling devoid of all sins?
Healthy and thin.
You can be the ruler of the free world but you'll never be free because
'Cause You can't remember when.
The programs are special
The money makes you special
The programs are special
The money makes you special
The programs are special
The money makes you special
The programs are special
The money makes you special
The programs are special
The money makes you special
