Mumblecore

from The Birdcage by Struwwelpeter

lyrics

You're kind of irrelevant
You set your own precedent
Invented success
Feel superior to all of the rest of us
Despite everything you do
No-one really thinks of you
Until you complain
Then the whole cycle's repeated again

So wake up, you're not refined
Just wake up, you're no great mind
Please wake up
Nobody finds you divine anytime

I fear you'll never be convinced
Of just where your real place is
You're barely aware
Take it so personal when life is unfair
And you want everybody to love you
And find you so riveting
You never say anything of consequence
Talking for hours without making sense

So shut it, nobody cares
Just shut it, I really despair
Please shut it, answer our prayers
And don't share your affairs

Don't stop me if you've heard this one before
Obviously you don't know you're just a bore
Everyone sees this but you
We can't take anymore

But no, you just keep on signing in
Put on your phoney skin
Entitlement reigns
Your self-importance coursing through your veins
