to think that i'm worthy of all this attention,

of all of this money you worked really hard for
C#m A
i slept in late while you worked at the drug store.

my drug's attention, i am an addict

i'm wearing make-up, make-up, make-up, make-up
E G# C#m
art is dead, so people think you're funny

cause i wanted my name in lights. when i could have fed a family of four
E G# C#m A
for forty fucking fortnights, forty fucking fortnights
i am an artist, please god forgive me
i am an artist, please don't revere me
i am an artist, please don't respect me
i am an artist, feel free to correct me
a self-centered artist, self-obsessed artist
i am an artist, i am an artist
E G# C#m
but i'm just a kid, i'm just a kid, i'm just a kid, kid
A
and maybe i'll grow out of it
