lyrics

Simsense Dirtbag

I don’t wanna live my life—
I’d rather live yours.
Give me money, fame, respect, and power—
give me novacoke and whores.
I don’t wanna feel a thing
I need something for the pain.
I need pleasures that I’ve never known
jacked straight into my brain.

Load a chip…
and off we go…

But I am not a role model, no—
I am not a saint!
I’m just a simsense fuckin’ dirtbag, baby—
that ain’t never gonna change!

You can’t make me face the world—
you can’t tell me what to feel.
Give me BTLs for days, then go away,
I need a fix to make me real.
‘Cuz I don’t wanna live my life—
I’d rather live yours.
So give me all that I could ever want,
and then give me some more.

Load a chip…
and off we go…
Where we’ll stop…
No one knows.

And I am not a role model!
I am not a saint!
I’m just a simsense fuckin’ dirtbag, yeah,
and I’m never gonna change!

Why not escape this life—
the boredom, the bullshit, the fear in your eyes?
Why not give it a try?
You might just love it— you might be surprised.

Why not just leave this place—
the corporate control and the lies to your face?
Just take a little taste…
What kind of life is this? Who cares if it wastes?

Come take one step outside
your hopeless, frightened self.
We don’t need their salvation—
we don’t need no help!

But I am not a role model, no—
I am not a saint!
I’m just a simsense fuckin’ dirtbag, baby—
that ain’t never gonna change!
I am not a role model!
I’ll never be a saint!
I’m a simsense fuckin’ dirtbag, honey,
and there ain’t no other way!
