Draggin' You Down Into Mediocrity

Draggin' you down into mediocrity
Draggin' you down, whoa
Draggin' you down into mediocrity
Draggin' you down, whoa
Draggin' you down into mediocrity
Draggin' you down, whoa
Draggin' you down into mediocrity
Draggin' you down, whoa

     And when the whole world burns
     And when the whole world screams
     And when the whole world dies

     Satan be standin' on the mountaintop
     Pissin' fire on the pigs below

Your girlfriend's an idiot
She went and fucked warthogs
Then she demands diamonds, whoa

Draggin' you down into mediocrity
Draggin' you down, whoa

Petty, normal dipshits
Stupid, boring office jobs
Proud of their stupidity, whoa

Draggin' you down into mediocrity
Draggin' you down, whoa

Drunken ugly fistfights
Bloody sick barroom brawls
Everyone kills everyone, whoa

Draggin' you down into mediocrity
Draggin' you down, whoa

Bitchy, snotty people
Shove ahead of you in line
They went and grabbed everything, whoa

Draggin' you down into mediocrity
Draggin' you down, whoa

     And when the whole world burns
     And when the whole world screams
     And when the whole world dies

     Satan be standin' on the mountaintop
     Pissin' fire on the pigs below

Wasting all your precious life
At your dumb, stupid, boring job
Just to make the owners rich, whoa

Draggin' you down into mediocrity
Draggin' you down, whoa

Dumb, worthless bullshit
Stacking old cardboard
Wasting your precious life, whoa

Draggin' you down into mediocrity
Draggin' you down, whoa

Vicious, cruel managers
Control-freaking everyone
Thowin' shit everywhere, whoa

Draggin' you down into mediocrity
Draggin' you down, whoa

Hyena Boy and Granny Fuck
Fuckin' in the guest suite
Then they shit on everyone, whoa

Draggin' you down into mediocrity
Draggin' you down, whoa

     And when the whole world burns
     And when the whole world screams
     And when the whole world dies

     Satan be standin' on the mountaintop
     Pissin' fire on the pigs below

Lunkheaded boyfriend
Stupid, pissy girlfriend
Arguing in public:
A study in ignorance, whoa 

Draggin' you down into mediocrity
Draggin' you down, whoa

Freakshow of Normals
Parade of Dipshits
Carnival of Idiots, whoa

Draggin' you down into mediocrity
Draggin' you down, whoa

Arrogant celebrities
Unwarranted self-regard
Shitty, pompous morons, whoa

Draggin' you down into mediocrity
Draggin' you down, whoa

Stupid, piggish yuppies
Greedy, grabby infants
Gotta hog everything
Gimme gimme gimme gimme

Draggin' you down into mediocrity
Draggin' you down, whoa

     And when the whole world burns
     And when the whole world screams
     And when the whole world dies

     Satan be standin' on the mountaintop
     Pissin' fire on the pigs below

Draggin' you down into mediocrity
Draggin' you down, whoa
Draggin' you down into mediocrity
Draggin' you down, whoa
