Underbite

[Intro: Rody Walker] So how you fucking feeling tonight? We're "insert name here" from "unimportant" And I'm about to mimic some image of a rock and roll singer I have under lock and key Without the faintest hint of irony That I'm flashing my pearly whites to sustain my mediocrity So is everyone having a good time tonight? Good, I'm glad—I couldn't actually care less You guys are the best crowd that we've ever seen Seen with these old dead eyes Blind to the stage or even my own lies So make some fucking noise So hey ho, let's go Let's start this contemptible "rock" show Blinding lights to hide the hand up our ass in this puppet-sock show Two sewn-on eyes, repurposed and made new Torn from an aging suit for a sense of déjà vu Thumb underbite I bite my fucking thumb And hope you catch a thread, and slowly come undone An illusion seldom spoken An understanding between you and I That the ground that you stand on is somehow less than mine An allusion to a broken home Left on the street and chilled to the bone So hey, we still feeling good? Now you comprehend our complex relationship—consumer/consumed You're just some stupid kid and I'm a megalomaniac [Bridge: Rody Walker] Shedding defenses for an honest creation Placing yourself in the stocks on the strap You're disgracing your effort by conforming to textbook Performance of music to fill in the gaps And it's bullshit It's bullshit Be honest, this can't be what you wanted If what you write about means anything to you Rather than pure vanity, people might connect with sincerity Pray the next generation learns from our mistakes Let's not repackage that same old performance Original content is so much more rewarding Let's not repackage that same old performance Original content is so much more rewarding [Outro: Todd Kowalski] I know that it might be quite cliché But if all the world is in fact a stage Then this stage, this here goddamn stage Might just be all the world
