Is That What It Takes?

VERSE 1
No one in this world is untouchable
Even less people are bulletproof
Turning that shit up to eleven
It’s what it takes to smash the glass roof

CHORUS
Is that what it takes to get some fame?
To use the power hungry’s names in vain?
Is that what it takes to climb the ladder?
To be slicker than a load of baby batter?
Is that what it takes to cash my checks?
To be more offensive than bestial sex?
You ignore the rest of my achievements
Gaze into the microscope at my demons!

VERSE 2
If I would have known this years ago
I’d have my own internet radio show
Spewing off at the mouth like dragon fire
While faceless callers label me a liar

CHORUS
Is that what it takes to get some fame?
To use the power hungry’s names in vain?
Is that what it takes to climb the ladder?
To be slicker than a load of baby batter?
Is that what it takes to cash my checks?
To be more offensive than bestial sex?
You ignore the rest of my achievements
Gaze into the microscope at my demons!

VERSE 3
I could apologize until the end of time
I could pay off that heavy ass fine
Drop to my knees and beg you, “Please”
It wouldn’t be enough to wash off the sleaze
You never apologized for your own sins
Throw your death threats in the rubbish bin
Everyone around you is a precious snowflake
The news of your hypocrisy must be so fake

CHORUS
Is that what it takes to get some fame?
To use the power hungry’s names in vain?
Is that what it takes to climb the ladder?
To be slicker than a load of baby batter?
Is that what it takes to cash my checks?
To be more offensive than bestial sex?
You ignore the rest of my achievements
Gaze into the microscope at my demons!

FINAL VERSE
For whatever it’s worth on this scorching earth
I apologize for the very idea of my birth
I don’t mean it, but neither do you

Keep on screaming until your face is blue
