Suitable For Framing Lyrics - Singles - Babyland

Once upon a time 

Sunk and surrounded 

A comparison began 

And the be-all and end-all 

Well it never happened 

The routine of questioning procedure 

Was pushing me in the one way 

I pretended to choose 

I pretended to choose 

So we experiment 

And give things a chance 

We find ourselves a rut slightly less obvious 

By taking command 

And the package states 

There's no such thing as destiny 

Pick the flavor you want 

The hanger-on will emulate it to a T 

Becoming more than the idol ever was 

It's no experiment 

Everything is a calculation 

We're silly echoes 

Who don't make sense 

Caught up tight 

In the dumb things we do 

We feel the need to release 

The results of reactions 

That take place within our heads 

All the stupid shit 

You counterfeit and fabricate 

Show me anything that's never been done 

One in a million 

One of a million 

The echo's confused 

Each reflection of the past 

Takes a life of its own 

Once upon a time 

We knew it was coming 

We hoped it was coming 

Go build big lies, go build big lies 

It's compensation for the nothings we are inside 

We fuck ourselves just to see what it feels like 

Retch perfection 

It's self-importance all the way 

A chip on my shoulder 

And it's almost as big as yours 

Go build big lies, go build big lies 

It's compensation for the void that we have inside 

Let's pretend we tried to see 

What it feels like 

Shit fulfillment 

It's self-importance all the way 

I've got a chip on my shoulder 

And it's almost as big as yours 

(We're number one)
