Let's be pretentious    Be something we're not    And we'll jump on the bandwagon    Cause we think it is hot    And we'll shake our no wave asses    it's the thing to do until we can't think or breath          Let's be dramatic    Perceptions for pills    Then we’ll buy them with our paychecks so we can't pay our bills    And we'll sleep until tomorrow – I’ll be dreaming of you    Oh yeah       Let's be myopic    Elitists and smart    Gently rehash pop nostalgia into biblical art    Preach our genius to the masses til our faces blue    Oh yeah Oh yeah oh yeah       (Chorus)    I want to drive my car into a wall    I want to buy your house just to burn it down    Please, Let me sleep with somebody that I will never trust    Blame the cruel art of pretension for my screw -ups             Let’s be neurotic    Our high and our lows    Hire someone who smells famous    To tell all of our woes    They’ll dissect us like we’re children attending Sunday school    Oh yeah             Let's be eclectic    Won’t graze with the pack    You can pierce it with a pin    Tattoo its name on your back    But you’ll never be as different as you wanted to be    Oh Yeah OH yeah Oh yeah          (Chorus)    I want to drive my car into a wall    I want to buy your house just to burn it down    Please, Let me sleep with somebody that I will never trust    Blame the cruel art of pretension for my screw -ups                I can’t stop dancing    Or running in place    A reflection of my failures    Are lit up in your face    I see friends and I see lovers and my confidants    OH yeah!       We’re frustrated liars, idiot savants, comforted by our petty torments and our liquor filled haunts    If we sleep for 3 tomorrows will …we wake up new?    Oh yeah oh yeah oh yeah             (Chorus)    I want to drive my car into a wall    I want to buy your house just to burn it down    And I if I sleep with somebody that I may ever love    Blame the cruel art of pretension for my screw –ups    Blame the cruel art of pretension, I’m so screwed up.
