C'mon, will you call me back?
Tell me, sugar, that you ain't got jack
'Cause I am the chosen one
Smack you silly on your tender bum

Don't change me; you'll never change me
Can't change me or rearrange me

'Cause I don't really blame you, girl
'Cause I'm so freakin' egotistical
You got the fucking prize
Growl at me and make me paralyzed

Don't help me; you'll never help me
I've got to break free to be me
So long

Don't help me; you'll never help me
I've got to break free to be me
So long

I don't really blame you, girl
'Cause I'm so freakin' egotistical
And you got the fucking prize
Growl at me and make me paralyzed

Growl at me and make me paralyzed
Growl at me and make me paralyzed
