lyrics

I!
am completely intimidated now
yes, it's finally happened

I can see what you've got
I can see what they've made
I can see every little fucking
super badd-ass thing that there
is on this planet that I hate

well, let me see, ok, well...
excellent costumes, excellent attire
super cool gadgets
50 thousand perfect
amazing sculptures from wire

Jumping off cliffs, jet planes with faces
flying boats synchronized to
tying shoe laces

1 trillion videos
to show they are better
what can you do?
where are you going?
popular, popular
go to the popular
get to the popular

hang gliding orchestra
that's neat, what's next?
Chimpanzes hackysack
revolving rooms
drive your car with
suchshon cup tires
right up a building
that's neat, what's next?

Music at light speed
best song in the world
choirs with home made instruments
floating stages
trillions of bands
see what they can
see what they do
that's neat, what's next?

nothing's next
nothing's more
there's more of nothing
it's nothing-core
everthing's next
everything's more
there's more of everything
it's nothing-core
it's nothing-core, it's nothing-core

going the wrong way
according to the wise old tablets
I should know more
how to explain, but...

ohh the religions
they look inside
don't grasp the external
there's nowhere to hide

hide under possessions
no, no, no
that's very wrong
whatever, I understand
I'm just saying again that I
don't belong!!!

I'm not good enough
and I can really see it now
because the computer shows me
how bad I am now

how unambitious, how incomplete,
how fucking ugly, how underachieved

but guess what?
I've already known this
just like you
I already know
how better you are
I gave up a long time ago

this is nothing new
you are nothing new to me
I've known you are better
there's nothing new
it's reached it's prime
it's ripe for the picking
we're all going to die
hahahahahaha!

nah, it's cool man
I aint going there
go to town, like I knew you would
and I'll just kick back
like I always do

I knew they were better
a long time ago
and you flaunt it now
in my face
same old thing
same old show
yeah, I know
yeah, I know
