“M & M” is about a goth kid called Gothy who can’t stand the happy-go-lucky behavior of people around him and is fed up with what society throws at him. The song title could be a reference to either the typical goth subculture use of applying “mascara and makeup” on oneself and to Marilyn Manson...
[Verse 1: Ben Kowalewicz]
And you, and you came to me like my alarm
I carved your first and last name in my arm
Now I only wear black so maybe then they will see
I'm just a shadow of what I'm not supposed to be
You fuel my fire with your laughs and with your frowns
You call me "a freak" and "join the circus, you clown"
I heard a man say that I do it for attention
I never thought of that but now that you mention
[Pre-Chorus: Ben Kowalewicz & Ian D'Sa]
No I never drank blood before but I look like I might
With my face painted white
[Chorus: Ben Kowalewicz]
For just this once I wish you'd all just hear what I have to say
For just this once I wish you'd all just turn and fade away
For just this once I wish you'd all just hear what I have to say
For just this once I wish you'd all just turn and fade away
[Verse 2: Ben Kowalewicz]
But, but, but! But now the days are different from a way back when
So hard to be yourself when you're 4+10
The very first time I feel kind of special
My mom says be normal yet she just got a facial
When my parents go away on their trip to Club Med
Then I'll join your tour and be a real deadhead
I heard a girl say that I do it for attention
I never thought of that but now that you mention
[Pre-Chorus: Ben Kowalewicz & Ian D'Sa]
Spent my last ten bucks today on black hair dye
You know dye rhymes with die
[Chorus: Ben Kowalewicz]
For just this once I wish you'd all just turn and fade away
For just this once I wish you'd all just hear what I have to say
For just this once I wish you'd all just turn and fade away
For just this once I wish you'd all just
[Bridge: Ben Kowalewicz (& Ian D'Sa)]
(Hear what I have to say) Just hear what I have to say
(Hear what I have to say) And just hear what I have to say
(Hear what I have to)
(Hear what I have to say) And just hear what I have to say
(Hear what I have to say) And just hear what I have to say
(Hear what I have to)
[Outro: Ben Kowalewicz]
A psycho killer, well qu'est-ce que c'est?
It doesn't matter anyway-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay
It matters anyway
A psycho killer, well qu'est-ce que c'est?
It doesn't matter anyway-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay
It matters anyway
A psycho killer, well qu'est-ce que c'est?
It doesn't matter anyway
It matters anyway
