Текст (слова) песни: Byrne, David - A Self-made Man

Were living in a dump
Trying to figure out what sex we are
Exchanging chromosomes
Trying to bargain for a better future
Well Ill trade you my potential mental illness
For your bad teeth
How bout trading your sexy body for a full head of hair
Well we cant predict the future
But were trying to do the best that we can
My cards are on the table
Im gambling everything that I am
And some of us are hoping
To end up with a perfect life
Ill trade you everything that I got
For the chance to be someone else
But what you see is what you get
And what you give is what you choose
And what I am
What you see
Is exactly what I chose to be

Now we got a black market
Black market in designer genes
Most beautiful, most intelligent criminals youve ever seen
Now youre paying top dollar
For what you used to get for free
Theyll stun you with their looks
And charm you with effortless ease

Theyve taken everything from you
The way you walk
The way you smile
The sound of your voice
Dont even know who you are
Who are you now?
Who are you now?

Im a self made man, Im a self-made man
Im a self-made man (I got nothing left to give)
Im a self-made man (I got nothing left to lose)

On down the hallway
The freaks are waiting for you
Somebody calls me
The freaks are waiting for you
And the clown will laugh in your face
Ho ho ho ho ho ho ho ho ho
The clown will laugh in your face
Ho ho ho ho ho ho ho ho ho
The clown will laugh in your face
