♫ Gonna steal some bed sheets
♫ From an amputee
♫ Gonna mount them on a canvas
in the middle of the gallery
♫ Gonna tell everybody it
was painted by a chimpanzee
♫ But just between you and me
♫ Here at the cultural low water mark
♫ If it's fraud or art
♫ They'll pay you to believe
♫ Gonna take five young dudes
♫ From white families
♫ Gonna mount them on a billboard
♫ In the middle of the country
♫ Gonna tell everybody
♫ They sing like angels with whiter teeth
♫ But just between you and me
♫ They're just like the ones before
♫ With their standards lower
♫ No, the concertgoer
♫ Will pay you to believe
♫ Oh, caffeine in the morning
♫ Alcohol at night
♫ Cameras to record you
and mirrors to recognize
♫ And as the world is getting smaller
♫ Small things take up all your time
♫ Narcissus would have had a field day
♫ If he could have got online
♫ And friends it's not
self-love that kills you
♫ It's when those who hate you are allowed
♫ To sell you that you're a glorious shit
♫ The entire world revolves around
♫ And that you're the
eater, no, not the eaten
♫ But that your hunger will only cease
♫ If you come binge on radiant blandness
♫ At the disposable feast
- [Woman] You're enjoying
the Chill Winter playlist.
♫ Just quickly, how
would you rate yourself
- [Woman] I mean Indie Brunch.
♫ In terms of sex appeal
and cultural significance
- [Man] Irony, irony.
♫ Do you usually listen to music like this
- [Woman] Just one more mile.
♫ Can recommend some similar artists
- [Woman] This is totally
the song of my summer.
♫ Are you feeling depressed
- [Woman] This guy just gets me.
♫ But your feedback's important
♫ To us
- [Woman] Music is my life.
♫ Gonna buy myself a sports team
♫ And put them in a pit
♫ I'm gonna wage the old
crusade against consciousness
♫ All I need's a couple winners
♫ To get every loser to fight in it
♫ Keep the golden calf,
just need the bullshit
♫ And they won't just sell
themselves into slavery
♫ They'll get on their
knees and pay you to believe
