The only good thing about you is your taste in music (and even that's not 100%)

 
The only good thing about you is
Your taste in music.
Well, at least thirty percent of the time
when you're not criticizing mine

make yourself feel better
by putting everyone else down
turn my smile upside down
fake inverted frown
and I'm not just talking about
your opinion
on a tune

Every time I'm around you
I feel like less
I feel like I have to stress
and walk on tiptoes
trying to reach my nose
over whatever invisible line
you've set somewhere above mine

Yours is up in the air,
swine.
What makes you think
your shit don't stink?
You're wallowing around in it well
thinking you smell
of roses
and only the few
can get their noses
high enough in the air
where
they think their
shit don't stink either.
