lyrics
Perspective is the great equalizer
Maybe if you kept more than your own then you would know
Everything comes back, as much as you repress it
As you lie through teeth, taking all the credit
Your song is great
Or so some people say
But golden calfs breed sycophants
They won't say to your face
That you're still an asshole
Perspective is the great equalizer
Maybe if you kept more than your own then you would know
Everything comes back, as much as you repress it
Even screw flies die when they run out of flesh to molest
What would you say?
What does it matter?
Your pride caress
My thin success
To chances far away
Your song is great
Or so some people say
But golden calfs breed sycophants
They'll never tell the truth
That you're still an asshole
