I cry on the gameshow I tried and I lost.
Apply gloss lipstick at a high cost.
Why walk home? You can sleep in my loft.
And your cell phone might sneeze but mine coffs
My computer plays spice girls when I sign off
And the first pulp fiction track.
That line's awesome!
All I need to know know is how to find Lawson's.
Huh. I guess it's pretty easy.
L'ennui, I got a picture of me
Lookin at a picture of me
Lookin at a picture of me
Life imitate art imitate life
Which are we doing now?
Whatever you say I disagree
Just to be devil's advocate
I never get mad
And it's why I had to get a TV
It's got a button for sad
A button for feeling mad
And an ad for virtual holocaust on cd
L'ennui
Pay a fee to feel real, millions afford 'em
Bills to eliminate bourgeoisie boredom
Pills to stimulate bourgeoisie tearducts
Swallow the beer cup, cause this year sucked
I'm Stuck with my wealth and my health
And a picture of me looking at a picture of myself
L'ennui, I got a picture of me
Looking at a picture of me
Looking at a picture of me
A picture of a picture of me
I got a picture of a picture of me
Looking at me looking at me
L'ennui, I got a picture of me
Looking at a picture of me
Looking at a picture of me
Life imitate art imitate life
Which are we doing now?
Whatever you say, I disagree
"Survival", Brand new 3-D videogame title
Released by virtual media
Fame spread it from east coast to west bay
Top selling game in the USA
Level 1: You're a big-eyed premature son
Of a crack fiend mama
In the ghetto on the run
Settle on a gun
Get in on the funds with drugs
Mug some old lady for a hundred
Thugs can avoid being place in prison
Avoid wasting is avoid cops
And avoid racism
If your face isn't giving rich white people chills
Beat the level move to Beverly Hills
Level 2: You're a gay or a jew or a gypsy
Housed in the pits of Auschwitz
Pick from these Nazis
If he accepts your bribe
You'll press the yellow button in a prayer for survival
Level 3: You're a Bangkok whore
Rank top score or you get sick
Level 4: You're an anorexic in denial
Rationalizing lies in a fasion magazine aisle
Grab the green dial and keep hope alive
On the screen while the scene gets set for
Level 5: After monsoon floods in Bangladesh
Bodies mangled fresh
Untangle and guess which is your best friend
Sift through the pebble and sticks to find food then go to
Level 6: You're the CEO of Royal Shell Oil
Ruling Nigeria
Fueling hell
Boiling dissidents, foiling resistance to wells
That spoil the subsistence soil of non-Christians
Crisis press release create distance
Sit down, ponder your own existence
Suicidal
Open up the bible
Maintain survival and win
But the the last level is shot through a camera lens behind your head
It's a picture of you that never ends!
L'ennui, I got a picture of me
Looking at a picture of me
Looking at a picture of me
A picture of a picture of me
I got a picture of a picture of me
Looking at me looking at me
L'ennui, I got a picture of me
Looking at a picture of me
Looking at a picture of me
Life imitate art imitate life
Which are we doing now?
Whatever you say I disagree
America's Funniest Home Videos
See dick fall and hit his crotch
Pretty low brow, so I turn to a titty show
All I did is watch a minute and felt shitty so
Me and myself split a scotch
And switched to a gritty slow motion
Frame by frame head shot
Screen displaying the brain chunk
With the lead caught
All I did is watch as the narrator spoke
"Guess that takes care of his sore throat
The folks in the next scene smoking are
Actually live
The footage that is, the people have all died
When the irony armies arrived at 5
Dropping the sarcasm bombs from the sky"
End quote
The blood was real and the reel was soaked
The whole war brought to us by coke
And I thought what shock the show must provoke
For those who don't know that it's just a joke
It's all just a joke, but it's right outside
Anybody can play if they wanna get a notch on their belt
I felt I should have at least tried to help
But all I did is watch
All I did is watch a screen full of dots
Now there's a red one pointed at my crotch
Pointed at my head, It's raw with no edits
So I guess the joke's on me
Do you get it?
L'ennui, I got a picture of me
Looking at a picture of me
Looking at a picture of me
A picture of a picture of me
I got a picture of a picture of me
Looking at me looking at me
L'ennui, I got a picture of me
Looking at a picture of me
Looking at a picture of me
Life imitate art imitate life
Which are we doing now?
Whatever you say I disagree
(Repeat)
