Attention Please

Your attention, please, I've got something to share
Feast your eyes upon my brand new hair
If your eyes can adjust
To the neon glare and my look of disgust

What are you seeking validation for?
At the character assassination store
The shelves are full, but nothing's cheap

So pick your ego up of the floor
An inch or two, but nothing more
It's a crutch you want, not what you got
You're falling all over the looks you bought

The best are brought down by degrees
Or killed by curiosity
"Attention, please" is all they understand

Drawing a crowd for some meager pay
Drawing a bead down on the weakly prey
Got to throw in your hat
Win, lose, or draw, you're a diplomat

The best are brought down by degrees
The rest are curiosities
"Attention, please" is all they understand

You pull the act out on demand
And always have the upper hand
Be prepared for reprimand
Attention's all they understand

What are you seeking validation for?
At the character assassination store
The shelves are full, but nothing's free

The best are brought down by degrees
Or killed by curiosities
"Attention, please" is all they understand
