lyrics

This is crap
A piece of crap
I churn it out
I dump it out
You lap it up
You eat it whole, yeah -
19 dollars for this piece of crap
You'll take it.

Pay for me
Make me sexy
Buy me groupies
High school kids are stupid
You can trick them
Use them
Look I'm what you wanted all along.

I love this song
How do you do it?
Oh, you're so angry
Just like me
You know the pain
Middle-class white rage, yeah -
Mom and dad won't let me out past midnight
I'm in hell

Sell to me
Say you hate me
Give me bootlegs
You're official spokesman for my
G-G-G-G-Generation
Talking with your mouth full -
BANG!

This is a wonderful time to be a rock n' roller
Pray that your connections are as good as mine
Watch me put my grocery list to music
Watch it sell a million copies
Watch the kids find poetry in every line

Yeah, this is crap
A piece of crap
I churn it out
I dump it out
You lap it up
Swallow it whole, yeah -
Silly rabbit, you are what you eat
Don't touch me

I know
I'll get a kicking drum and bass loop
I'll make some noises on a keyboard
Hey back off, buddy, I'm an artist
Now I'm on the cutting edge
Yeah.
