Hate it when that happens Love it when it's not me Do I lack compassion, though? I am just as guilty, oh You can play the game, and if not Be okay with getting played! Do you even hear the things I say? I don't want to be saved I am dancing upon the edge of a knife Lights, camera, survey, I'm blinded by light I cannot pander to all of your tastes I bet you'd shudder if you took my place If something I did made you feel that way Then I guess it really was in poor taste! One bad step, and then I have to scramble to save face Picture perfect placement, I can't have any mistakes! Faked the perfect dinner, now the truth is off the plate Pandering to all, stay in line or stay out of frame! Hold that pose, don't get too close Roll it, roll it Wait, hold it, just one moment Slow it, slow it Cut, retake, leave no mistakes Cut it, cut it Light and sound, now cut that out Not it, not it Who I am is not who they see I'm not who I want to be Doesn't really matter if it's real if it is not revealed I cannot pander to all of your tastes I bet you'd shudder if you took my place If something I did made you feel that way Then I guess it really was in poor taste! One bad step, and then I have to scramble to save face Picture perfect placement, I can't have any mistakes! Faked the perfect dinner, now the truth is off the plate Pandering to all, stay in line or stay out of frame!
