What I'm Told

The gamble's the same;
The outcome's a game -
Ratios rigged high up to blame.
Forever growth,
Debt to debt,
Interest in interest to forget.
Ratios are always the same,
But now thousands are billions -
Yeah, it all adds up again...
In the slime,
In the time,
It takes to count away...
The swamp sucks me back in again.

I am so masturbating,
Pleasing me daily -
It's all about me, baby:
Look at me, me, me, me, me...
Yeah, it's what I'm told.

Look at my body;
Look at my face -
Look at what I'm doing
All over the place.
Look at me:
Fun little me;
Dirty little me;
Oh, poor little me!
I love me,
I hate me -
"Crazy little me"
On my bleeding knees,
In the struggle of my troubles,
Thoughts bought,
Locked in shiny little knots;
Written to order
For my disorders,
Pretending how to live.

I am so masturbating,
Pleasing me daily -
It's all about me, baby:
Look at me, me, me, me, me...
Yeah, it's what I'm told.

Another goal,
Win or lose, is never as supposed -
In the whirlpool of your mind,
A palace is a hut,
A hut a palace
Depending on you.
I know the games;
I know the rules;
I know the script
You think controls you -
Completing what you've been told to do,
Speaking lines,
Being made the fool.
Straight in line!
The routine of a cold counting machine -
What you thought you were supposed to do
(Put there years ago),
Feeding on you...
Feed now on the life for you!

I am so masturbating,
Pleasing me daily -
It's all about me, baby:
Look at me, me, me, me, me...
Yeah, it's what I'm told.
It's what I'm told -
Yeah, oh yeah, it's what I'm told.
Let me please you daily -
It's not all about me, baby.
Let me help you...
I'll help you with that...
Let me please you, maybe
