Lyrics:

caught in the headlamp glare of your own blinding vanity

mesmerised by the stare of your shallow personality

gorging the junk food of flattery you drag your fat ego around

everyone floored by the battering you give to whoever's around



trapped in the personal hell of your own desperate addiction

frightened that others can tell of your expensive affliction

with your happiness based on a chemical you wax lyrical with words so profound

when your indulgence reaches that level it's safest not to be around



oh narcissus you petulant child admiring yourself in the curve of my eyes

oh narcissus you angel beguiled unsated by self you do nothing but die



wrapped in the transparent lies of your desperate situation

you expound on imaginary ties expecting us to believe them

in the absence of concrete commitment

you've all the attention that money can buy

not caring that those who still love you are callously thrown to one side



oh narcissus you petulant child admiring yourself in the curve of my eyes

oh narcissus you angel beguiled unsated by self you do nothing but die

oh narcissus you treacherous child admiring yourself in the curve of my eyes

oh narcissus you angel beguiled unsated by self you do nothing but die



hey you dog man whelp of a litter of scavengers

bolting the flesh of your victims with a ravenous greed

you work with your siblings up to a point

'til your ego is sated or your wallet fulfilled

jealously guarding the bones of your kill

with a malice that's born out of fear



running with the pack your defence is to attack

but i detect you in your stealth because you've rolled in your own filth

you hope to gain my trust with your cowardly disguise

whispering such confidences my revulsion to a-wreck



you call yourself my friend you call yourself my friend

and when i turn my back your fangs will feel my neck

what is your domain but a barn where your runts roll in the reek

you would seek to steel my freedom and have branded me a freak

i want nothing of your snarling mongrel strain your smarmy doggerel lies

and if these words have singed your fur consider yourself a whipped cur



gorging the junk food of flattery you haul your fat ego around

everyone floored by the battering you give to whoever's around



oh narcissus you petulant child admiring yourself in the curve of my eyes

oh narcissus you angel beguiled unsated by self you do nothing but die
