you preach with such conviction   but your life mirrors contradiction   daddy foots the bills   as you live a life of priveleged frills   buying hair dye with mommy's visa card   yet you bitch that life is so hard   with a punker-than-thou attitude   you hide behind a facade to elude      You're a simple book to read   with your transparent creed   Your facade recedes   to your front-we do heed.      sent to an ivy league school   only to come out a corporate fool   one day sporting daddy's benz   next day your politi-punk stance condescends   your opinions are ineffectual   you're a phoney pseudo-intellectual   out to prove yourself with verbal affrays   but your prescence here is just a phase      You're a simple book to read   with your transparent creed   Your facade recedes   to your front-we do heed.      oh my god i've got daddy's benz today   really i have mommy's plastic   we can go shopping, oh my god, total   the mall    we're there, we're so there   shop for punk cd, come on    alright, lets go      You're a simple book to read   with your transparent creed   Your facade recedes   to your front-we do heed.      you make attempts to theorize   with motives contrived to criticize   you'll find ways to falsly justify your guise   to explain to yourself your lies   you'll be gone in two years-an accurate prediction   and elsewhere you'll live out a life of fiction   family money affords your fleeting radical views   but nothing can buy you true virtues      You're a simple book to read   with your transparent creed   Your facade recedes   to your front-we do heed.      you preach with such conviction   but your life mirrors contradiction   daddy foots the bills   as you live a life of priveleged frills   buying hair dye with mommy's visa card   yet you bitch that life is so hard   with a punker-than-thou attitude   you hide behind a facade to elude      You're a simple book to read   with your transparent creed   Your facade recedes   to your front-we do heed.
