Dissatisfaction Guaranteed

(album: Presumed Insolent - 2013)

Well this is a story about little boys
Degeneration built on structure and poise
On an island of broken toys

Dissatisfaction guaranteed
In the pool of Narcissus

In this place of servants and kings
Climb up the ladder you get more things
Pull the puppets by broken strings
Dissatisfaction guaranteed
In the pool of Narcissus

Kids play Zeus with crocodile smiles
Holding court; they hold it with style
Top dogs spitting venom and bile
I can play along with the helicopter moms
The queen bees, the ding and the dong
The wicked witches singing along

Dissatisfaction guaranteed
In the pool of Narcissus

And I can play the king and play it with glee
Rattle cages of lollipop thieves
Sierra Madre don't mean nothing to me
Hear the Echo, yeah here we go
In the village where no one knows
Who will follow and who will lead
