Ego Is Songtext
von Mobley

I got a touch of neurosis
She got the criminal stare
They got the predator poses
We got the buyer beware

And it won′t be long before they take you in
But I'll bide my time until it breaks the skin

Je ne sais pas pourquoi
Je sais que c′est comme ça
Je ne sais pas pourquoi
Je sais que c'est comme ça

Bet you could catch it on cable
Why don't you run up the flag?
I know you′re fit and you′re able
Who's got their hooks in your back?

It′s a cold, cold comfort from a far-gone friend
When I hear you say you gonna go again


Je ne sais pas pourquoi
Je sais que c'est comme ça
Je ne sais pas pourquoi
Je sais que c′est comme ça

It's been coming for years
It′s been coming in fits and starts and white chalk outlines
Trying to fight and find its way through
Tongue-worn TV soap box sound bites
And if you tear it apart
You'll find in place of a heart there's a card that reads simply
"Ego is"

Je ne sais pas pourquoi
Cold, cold comfort from a far-gone friend
Je sais que c′est comme ça
But I′ll bide my time until it breaks the skin
Je ne sais pas pourquoi
And you don't know nothing, if you don′t know this
Je sais que c'est comme ça
Cause it all goes down because the ego is
And it all comes down because the ego is
