Sick Of It All

Album:

Built To Last

You set the standard for everyone 
the standard to avoid 
and yet you're hogging the spotlight again 
and everyone is annoyed 
your affectations are obvious 
the trends so easily seen 
another martyr is nailed to the swatch 
the fantasy is obscene 


You're a prop, you're a prop 
you're a fuckin' laughingstock 
You're a prop, you're a prop 
this charade has got to stop 
Got to stop, got to stop, got to stop 


So go out and let them know 
who's the big man of the show 
who's the piss-ant livin' large 
who's the no-one takin' charge 
will you be seen in the scene 
does your rep still come up squeaky clean 
will you be seen in the scene that hates you 
mocks you, mocks you, they're mocking you 


At the top, at the top, laughingstock is at the top 
at the top, at the top, number one 
he's got the spot 
shit list, shit list, tops the list, so go out 
and let them know 
who's the big man of the show 
who's the piss-ant livin' large 
who's the nothing takin' charge 
will you be seen in the scene 
does your rep still come up squeaky clean 
will you be seen in the scene that hates you 
mocks you, mocks you, they always mock you 
you're a prop, you're a prop 
Laughingstock 
gets no props, gets no props 
Laughingstock 
got to stop, got to stop, got to stop
