Oh yeah!    A study of history reveals an unflagging appeal to mystery    You talk about abstraction at the top of the list    But you might as well get pissed,   cause in me the essence does not exist, no-oh-oh    Yeah yeah!    You’re so shallow    How can your romance hope to be the veil of an ersatz human nature    That can pacify but never slept well   when there’s the pretension of living a lie       Take me as I am, judge me for my crimes    I can say I’ll behave freely all the time    You can predict what I’ll say, it’s in my DNA    But soon I’ll be a catalogue number anyway       So say a little prayer    Convince yourself that someone cares    All I am is what you see    There is nothing more than the surface of me [x2],       you know       Oh yeah!       Apologies to Skinner, but I do believe that I feel like I’m a winner    Having just discovered a long solved modal secret, of how I always feel    So goddamn downtrodden and desperate       Take me as I am, judge me for my crimes    I can say I’ll behave freely all the time    You can predict what I’ll say, it’s in my DNA    But soon I’ll be a catalogue number anyway       So say a little prayer    Convince yourself that someone cares    All I am is what you see    There is nothing more than the surface of me [x6]      What you see is the surface of me
