Tell Me Goodbye Songtext
von Mac Lethal

Fake laughter
Fake laughter
Fake laughter
Hehehehehe
Yeah it′s funny isn't it?
Uh, yo


I′m a dark storm cloud that's floating over top of suburbia
I'll bust if you act all determined
I′m watering my garden with some black bottle bourbon
So open up and listen to my rag water sermon
The universe is mine, a few disturbing times
My Ouija board told me I should go
Back to bed so I could sleep some more
I didn′t disagree, the world is too gruesome
I'm far too beautiful to care about the revolution
So get your flyer out my face and don′t follow me dipshit
Your whole entire existence is so opportunistic
I give a damn about the damage to the body from botox
Who cares, get the fuck off your soapbox
I got a fresh pair of Nike shoes and I like 'em so much
I wanna thank the sweatshops in China too
Yeah man, it sucks the world is at war
But what the fuck you preaching in my face about it for?
I think that it′s a cunning motif
How you be flooding the streets
With propaganda all about how there's no justice or peace
But one thing you never mention is how
You do it all for your own damn attention
Come on man, you wanna be an activist?
Be a real activist

Tell me goodbye since you cannot rely on
Sympathy from me ′cause my tear ducts are dry
Look in my head for the sadness you seek but you
Won't find a piece that will make you complete
Tell me goodbye since you cannot rely on
Sympathy from me 'cause my tear ducts are dry
Look in my head for the sadness you seek but you
Won′t find a piece that will make you complete


I′m sick of trendy ass political rappers
Got me scribbling chapters I deliver full of cynical laughter
Nowadays every god damn little disaster
Needs a dedication song about it doesn't it? (Yes!)
Yeah man, fight the power, fuck the government
That′s a great message but I smell your lies under it
Yeah I see you acting all conscious getting passionate in rap songs
But truth be told you take tragedies and latch on
Hoping it'll garner you new fans
Every other day you probably praying when you walk to the news stand
That someone had a meltdown and bought ′em a tool
Blew a head gasket, flipped shit and shot up a school
And not two hours later there's a song up on your website
All about the tragedy and how you haven′t slept right
And all sorts of other cliches and trite phrases
You're dancing on corpses hoping to get famous
Go ahead and cash in, your anti war song sucks

Tell me goodbye since you cannot rely on
Sympathy from me 'cause my tear ducts are dry
Look in my head for the sadness you seek but you
Won′t find a piece that will make you complete
Tell me goodbye since you cannot rely on
Sympathy from me ′cause my tear ducts are dry
Look in my head for the sadness you seek but you
Won't find a piece that will make you complete

How can I eat such a harmless animal?
It′s easy, first I kill it, then I throw it on the grill
You think I got time to give a fuck about disorder
When the doctor got me over medicated on these pills?
Call me a lab rat, call me apathetic
Call me anything you want, call me everything you will
Just let me have one single day to myself
So I can fantasize that the chaos is not real and

Tell me goodbye since you cannot rely on
Sympathy from me 'cause my tear ducts are dry
Look in my head for the sadness you seek but you
Won′t find a piece that will make you complete
Tell me goodbye since you cannot rely on
Sympathy from me 'cause my tear ducts are dry
Look in my head for the sadness you seek but you
Won′t find a piece that will make you complete
