Mask

You're wearing a mask
You're wearing a mask
You're wearing a mask
You look better that way

You're wearing a mask
You're wearing a mask
You're wearing a mask
You look better that way

Are you my friend?
Are you my plumber?
Are you my God?
What do you do?

Wearing a mask
You're wearing a mask
You're wearing a mask
Which mask are you?
Which mask are you?

Complicated, crushed up, disappointed, squirming
Angry, thrusting, stabbing, regretting, starving, greedy, human alien being
Struggling down the street, up the alley, in the elevator
Through the party, to the office, in the bedroom, on your way to the morgue
Bullshitting, lying, doing a good deed or feeling loved barely possible

Aware of insatiable demands of not a society all around you
Chunky frat boys in their shorts, pimps with old Semite eyes
Sex hoochies of the jungle, sensitive smart alec college graduates
Critics fronting franticly in New York City
Everybody in LA just plain licking ass or having it licked
Irony in place of balls, balls in place of brains, brains in place of soul
Where is the soul? Where is the love? Where am I?

Which mask are you?
Which mask are you?
Which mask are you?

You're wearing a mask
You're wearing a mask
You're wearing a mask
Which mask are you?
