[00:50.37] So you finally got what you wanted
[00:55.15] You've achieved your aim by making me walk in line
[01:03.26] And when you just can't get any higher
[01:08.11] You use your senses to suss out this week's climber
[01:16.59] And the small fame that you've acquired
[01:20.65] Has brought you into cult status
[01:23.20] But to me you're still a collector
[01:29.73] There's tarts and whores but you're much more
[01:33.41] You're a different kind cause you want their minds
[01:37.60] And you just don't care cause you've got no pride
[01:41.92] It's just a face on your pillowcase
[01:46.67] That thrills you
[01:52.13] And you started looking much older
[01:56.56] And your fashion sense is second rate like your perfume
[02:05.52] But to you in your little dream world
[02:09.88] You're still the queen of the butterfly collectors
[02:18.03] As you carry on cause it's all you know
[02:22.17] You can't light a fire
[02:24.50] You can't cook or sew
[02:26.53] You get from day to day by filling your head
[02:30.13] But surely you must know the appeal between your legs
[02:34.24] Has worn off
[02:41.25] And I don't care about morals
[02:45.13] Cause the world's insane and we'e all to blame anyway
[02:53.58] And I don't feel any sorrow
[02:57.85] Towards the kings and queens of the butterfly collectors
[03:06.14] There's tarts and whores but you're much more
[03:09.78] You're a different kind cause you want their minds
[03:14.17] And you just don't care cause you've got no pride
[03:18.63] It's just a face on your pillowcase
[03:22.32] That thrills you
[03:26.93] As you carry on cause it's all you know
[03:30.68] You can't light a fire
[03:33.02] You can't cook or sew
[03:34.85] You get from day to day by filling your head
[03:39.20] But surely you must know the appeal between your legs
[03:43.38] Has worn off
[03:54.25] And I don't feel any sorrow
[03:57.94] Towards the kings and queens of the butterfly collectors
