Social Parasite Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You say you don't like the way we look
Well fuck off
I ain't some dying dog that you can kick
So fuck off

[Chorus]
It's so easy to fall into that hole
And you're the one who cast me in that role
If you loved me would you call me a social parasite?
And who's the one to tell me whether it's wrong or right?

[Verse 2]
You say you don't like the place I live
Well get out
There ain't no vacancy in my bed
So get out

[Chorus]
It's so easy to fall into that hole
And you're the one who cast me in that role
If you loved me would you call me a social parasite?
And who's the one to tell me whether it's wrong or right?
If you loved me would you call me a social parasite?
And who's the one to tell me whether it's wrong or right?
[Exclamation]
1, 2, 3, go!

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 1]
You say you don't like the way we look
Well fuck off
I ain't some dying dog that you can kick
So fuck off

[Chorus]
It's so easy to fall into that hole
And you're the one who cast me in that role
If you loved me would you call me a social parasite?
And who's the one to tell me whether it's wrong or right?
If you loved me would you call me a social parasite?
And who's the one to tell me whether it's wrong or right?

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
