lyrics

The pen is mightier than the surge
Your actions speak louder than your words

When opportunity knocks
Bust down the walls of friendship
You only get one shot
To burn your roots for barren respect
Get really cocky and crass
Prima Donna apprenticeship
"It's all a part of the act"
No, it's the only vestige of truth left

Don't second-guess yourself
You must be so impressed with yourself
Do whatever's best for yourself
And to hell with everybody else

Cognitive dissonance
To counteract your opportunism
With a persecuted pretense
The world owes you everything
Sounds good, but what's the catch?
You gotta keep this scene a schism
Smile, nod, and hold your tongue back
Unless you can veil the debasing
Keep it nonchalant and pompous
Calculated and self-conscious
Shift the conversation topic
Always to be me, myself, and I
Myself and me, myself, and I
Myself and me, myself, and I
Myself and me, myself, and I

SIGN US UP
Take our picture, buy our album, call the majors
SIGN US UP
Do us favors, kiss our asses, we don't know you
OPPORTUNIST
Thanks a lot, we're NVS, and to hell with all of you
