[intro (orphan ann / iva toguri d’aquino)]
greetings everybody!
this is your number one enemy speaking
ready again for a vicious assault on your morale

[verse 1]
the movie opens with a closeup of my tired eyes
and pans out to take in my full disguise
and the heartbreaking bloom of the half+empty room
it’s your roommate’s birthday’s eve

the band sounds like a sick kid’s sneeze in a kleenex
the fans cheer like flat beer and weak s+x
a tape loop of loud men and their soft, sad girlfriends
and you asking “when can we leave?”

but giving up the ghost gets too complex
the chorus soars, but the verse is vexed
and if light arrives, i can guess what’s next
it’s not all that hard to conceive

[chorus 1]
i, i, i, i, i, i, i, i, i, i, need that jealousy to look forward to, yeah
i, i, i, i, i, i, i, i, i, i, need that jealousy to look forward to, yeah
all of heaven’s peasants roll their eyes and smile, i paid them to
all of heaven’s peasants roll their eyes and smile, the sigh’s implied

[verse 2]
after the 10th rum punch i get a pretty good hunch
about exactly what you mean by “there’s no free lunch”
a ballet of decay, a bidet on broadway
a minuet of my pet peeves

but i know me well, i’m full of sh+t
too weird to win, too weak to quit
a tailored suit that still won’t fit
as i force my fists through the sleeves

[chorus 2]
i, i, i, i, i, i, i, i, i, i, need that jealousy to look forward to, yeah
i, i, i, i, i, i, i, i, i, i, need that jealousy to look forward to, yeah
all of heaven’s peasants roll their eyes and smile, i paid them to
all of heaven’s peasants roll their eyes and smile, the sigh’s implied

i, i, i, i, i, i, i, i, i, i, need that jealousy to look forward to, yeah
i, i, i, i, i, i, i, i, i, i, need that jealousy to look forward to, yeah
all of heaven’s peasants roll their eyes and smile, i paid them to
all of heaven’s peasants roll their eyes and smile, the sigh’s implied

[post+chorus]
you only know your mind when the thought’s unkind
you only know your heart when your tongue gets tart
you only learn your lines when the film rewinds
you only play your part when the tape restarts
