lyrics

IT’S ALL ABOUT YOU #2

Amputees, refugees
The eyes that cannot cry
Collapsing house values
Nail bomb in the cottage pie
The racist and the rapist
The glut of traffic cones
The evil glow in the marrow
Of the dead dictator’s bones

It’s all about you
It’s all about you

The choking air pollution
That makes the mountains puke
The lottery betting cretins
The fake factory dispute
STDs, HIV
The sniper in the trees
The baby hanging in the drain
The swarm of killer fleas

It’s all about you
It’s all about you

In a mirrored echo chamber
Surface over-kissed
You stay in sharp focus
All else is fog and mist
Preaching toleranting
But live hand-under-fist
Phone set to tunnel vision
Dial N for neo-narcissist
- Nothing else rings true
It’s all about you
It’s all about you, you, you
It’s all about you

In your safe space echo chamber
It’s ‘Agree’ or ‘Cease And Desist’
The crowds outside club themselves to death
And your name is on the list
Hooked up to your force-feed of trivia
Climb the ladder of celebrity
Getting higher gets you divvier
You say there’s no mystery
- You haven’t got a clue
It’s all about you
It’s all about you, you, you
It’s all about you
