[Instrumental Intro 0:00 - 1:50]
[Introduction]
Oh...
Oh...
Oh...
[Verse 1]
How do I scroll through these pictures without wanting to blow a hole through my head
Somewhere between the line of common decency and common sense we lost it
The perfect figure's not a woman, not a man, it’s ones and zeroes
Serotonin injection through bags of meat and sheets of skin
And massive sex mass production is everywhere there's no escaping it
[Bridge]
Oh...
Oh...
Oh...
Oh...
Oh...
[Verse 2]
Digital magazines and TV, where do we go from here?
Whatever they're now releasing
The dogs are satisfied on the farm
The border collies are all hurting
Mary, Mary, what do you wanna be when you grow up
The possibilities go on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on. Onnnnnnn, onnn, onnn
[Verse 3]
It’s not that I care what other people do, it's influence and promotion
We should decide to be somebody, not a work of fiction
Glorifying weight, staying up too late
Making matters of the things that shouldn't have this weight
[Chorus]
Let me introduce myself to Mr and Mrs misery
Don't mistake me for someone else, I'm an inspiration Blitzkrieg
No love
No responsibility
No patience
[Verse 4]
Why should I care, this doesn't affect me
Why should I involve myself when, this doesn't affect me
Sometimes I ask myself the same, stupid questions
Arguing with the perfect opponent, inside my pretty head
[Chorus]
Let me introduce myself to Mr and Mrs misery
Don't mistake me for someone else, I’m an inspiration Blitzkrieg
No love
No responsibility
No patience
