Heart sick at the sight of the Status Seeker,
in a sense I'm not beyond reproach.
The aspiration to drop a name,
when any rose might smell the same.
Maybe you'll figure it out someday.
"I want to know you now,
you know I've always believed in you."
Nothing is sacred!
You draw the bottom line
with a dollar sign.
Change of opinion,
at the drop of a dime.
Graceless intrusion,
are you sanctified in
your judgment of me?
All that I deserve is
what you were unable to see.
In a garden where
the seeds were spilled
I favored the few that
stood strong in the sun.
As I reached for the
profit of my prize,
I found I had trampled
the forgotten ones.
Nothing is sacred!
You draw the bottom line
with a dollar sign.
Change of opinion,
at the drop of a dime.
Graceless intrusion,
are you sanctified in
your judgment of me?
All that I deserve is
what you were unable to see.
You're running in circles
and I'm turning away.
You refused to believe,
now I'm turning away.
Nothing is sacred!
You draw the bottom line
with a dollar sign.
Change of opinion,
at the drop of a dime.
Graceless intrusion,
are you sanctified in
your judgment of me?
All that I deserve is
what you were unable to see.
You're running in circles
and I'm turning away.
You refused to believe,
now I'm turning away.
