Lyrics:
-INTRO-
-INTRO SOLO-
-VERSE 1-
"I'm selling records.
What is it that you do?
Sitting in your mama's basement with her shih tzu.
Peanut butter on your dick,
Right hand going click,
With your left hand giving you a rim job.
So now you wanna talk about me,
Whose name is on the marquee.
You hate everything that you can't be.
I've heard it all before."
-PRE-CHORUS 1-
"YOU'RE JUST A SELLOUT, TURN-COAT ROCKSTAR,
PUSSY, POSER, POPSTAR."
-CHORUS-
"Because you're nothing but a wannabe.
It's so easy when you're faceless.
Why don't you focus on your misery,
Instead of focusing on me?"
-VERSE 2-
"So number two, that's right.
What is it you're rolling,
Now that your mama's Ford Focus got stolen?
But it don't matter 'cause you've got nowhere to go,
So back to the hating, frantic masturbating.
So now you wanna talk about me.
You know the songs that you download for free.
You hate everything that you can't be.
I've heard it all before."
-PRE-CHORUS 2-
"YOU'RE JUST A SELLOUT, TURN-COAT POPSTAR,
PUSSY, POSER, ROCKSTAR."
-CHORUS-
"Because you're nothing but a wannabe.
It's so easy when you're faceless.
Why don't you focus on your misery,
Instead of focusing on me?"
-PRE-SOLO-
"So number two, that's right.
What is it you're rolling,
Now that your mama's Ford Focus got stolen?
But it don't matter 'cause you've got nowhere to go,
So back to the hating, frantic masturbating.
So now you wanna talk about me.
So now you wanna talk about me."
-SOLO-
-CHORUS-
"Because you're nothing but a wannabe.
It's so easy when you're faceless.
Why don't you focus on your misery,
Instead of focusing on me?
Nothing but a wannabe.
It's so easy when you're faceless.
Why don't you focus on your misery,
Instead of focusing on me?"
-OUTRO-
"I'm selling records.
What is it that you do?
Sitting in your mama's basement.
I'm selling records.
What is it that you do?
