Watch: New Singing Lesson Videos Can Make Anyone A Great Singer
There's another reflection involved up in my mind A wholeness that has just been lost Striving hard for perfection but still nothing to find Some value with a cheaper cost And as I reach out to hear you the sound is so muffled It makes a lesser man of me So the only thing left to bring up to date is You suck! [Chorus: x 2] Watch me fall while I go down I'm taking all you bastards to the ground with me then I'll frown On your fucking whole life The systematic hype still means a bit much to me I'm at the point of retraction and still slipping further This place is getting worse for me There's such a lack of direction and models to live by No bright skies ahead of me And as I reach out for your hand you turn and then wander Why I simply just can't see No separation of gender no difference in me You're just leading me on and on and on You lead me on and on and on and on You suck! [Chorus: x 2] Pretty soon it's gonna come back and be your turn Pretty soon you're gonna be the one that burns You suck! [Chorus: x 2] Your turn now
