about

This song explores Terrance Mckenna's "ego death" theory, with a twist of self-deprecation and gender dysphoria. "He who makes a beast of himself gets rid of the pain of being a man." Didn't the guy from Avenged Sevenfold say that?

lyrics

I love to play in traffic and throw fits at the store
You give me all you've got and baby all I want is more

'Cause I'm a Child I'm a selfish fucked up child
and my ego's four feet tall
Yeah you wanted a man yeah you ain't got one of those at all

I've been drinkin' liquor baby I've been smokin' dope
You're probably gonna find me at the end of a rope
I've been drinkin' liquor baby I've been smokin' dope
You'll probably find me jerking at the end of a rope

'Cause I'm a Child I'm a selfish fucked up child
and my ego's four feet tall
Yeah you wanted a man yeah you ain't got one of those at all

Well I love to play in traffic I steal my liquor from the store
You give me everything that you got baby baby I want more

'Cause I'm a Child I'm a selfish fucked up child
and my ego's four feet tall
Yeah you wanted a man yeah you ain't got one of those at all

'Cause I'm a Child I'm a selfish fucked up child
and my ego's ten feet tall
Yeah you wanted a man yeah you Know I ain't much of one at all
