lyrics

It's never good to leave after givin' up
-Cause quitting's for quitters-
Unless you're quittin' smoking
In which case, good on you
-Congratulations, you made it son-
I hear it's hard to do

-Cause sinning's for sinners
sitting's for sitters-
Unless you're killing for the government
Apparently
-In which case, you probably get good pay-

-And eating's for eaters-
I can't argue with that
-Unless you're bulimic-
There's no real claim I can make

-Did you have a bout of bulimia?
Just for a couple days, maybe
or a month or two?-
Stop writing songs about my bulimia
Don't even have bulimia
-It's just too exploitable-
Just an easy way to get at you

-Dangit
Or, should I say
Dernit-
