This is the seventh track off of Filter’s 1999 release “Title Of Record”
“‘Skinny’ is Richard Patrick’s nickname. From what I have read, that was what they called him when he played guitar in Nine Inch Nails. The song seems to be his present self singing back to the kid he once was; being picked on...
Skinny Lyrics
[Verse 1]
So here you are in your small little world
Kept up like a little precious virgin girl
To hear about your grace and your silly face
Wrapped up like a knot in a ball of shoelace
And every time I talk to you
It sounds like you're caught in a psychological flu
[Pre-Chorus]
Don't ever let them see you cheat
Don't ever let them see you bleed
Don't ever let them shake your hand
Don't ever let them believe that scam
[Chorus]
(Skinny) And it will make you cry
(Skinny) And it will make you lie
(Skinny) And if it makes you soft inside
(Skinny) At least you will not die
[Verse 2]
And if you take a good look at them
All caught up in their graciousless win
Every sin is their seamless smile
Will go on for a countless while
And just because they think they won
It just means that the shit has just begun
[Pre-Chorus]
Don't ever let them see you cheat
Don't ever let them see you beat
And don't ever let them shake your hand
And don't ever let them believe that scam!
[Chorus]
(Skinny) And it will make you cry
(Skinny) And it will make you lie
(Skinny) And if it makes you soft inside
(Skinny) At least you will not die
[Outro]
Yeah!
(Skinny)
(Skinny)
Yeah!
