Conditioned to Ignore Me


VERSE 1
The Clockwork Orange magic spell
Gave you a brainwashed story to tell
Conditioned to ignore me no matter what
Whether I hurt inside or have a deeper cut
I could burn a building to the ground
Or I could rescue an abused hound
Optimist, pessimist, who gives a fuck?
If it’s a cry for help, I’m shit out of luck

CHORUS
Conditioned to ignore me
Because you find me boring
Because I’m down on my knees
Begging for me to finally be seen

VERSE 2
Pavlov’s sorcery has got you by the balls
Conditioned to laugh whenever I fall
Conditioned to walk right past me
Conditioned to low-key blast me
It’s meat paste and the bell once again
Making drooling slaves out of good friends
I could burn the world or buy you pearls
Who’d give a fuck? Any boy or girl?

CHORUS
Conditioned to ignore me
Because you find me boring
Because I’m down on my knees
Begging for me to finally be seen

VERSE 3
I could hack the biggest computer database
I could kiss my kitty on his fuzzy little face
I could ride a nuclear missile like a horsy
I could pet every Labrador and every Corgi
Your conditioned response is still the same
To forget that I exist or that I have a name
Who put this spell on your pretty little head?
Who was the one who wished your soul dead?

EXTENDED CHORUS
Conditioned to ignore me
Because you find me boring
Because I’m down on my knees
Begging for me to finally be seen
Conditioned to reject me
Chew me up then digest me
Because I can’t scream loud enough
Somebody else already has it rough
