You are a friend,
a well known guy.
Everyone knows who you are,
They've all seen who you really are.

You hurt all you see,
you don’t hold any mercy.

You take your rusty knife and slit my throat,
You drain me of all my hope,
And I pay you to do this every g****mn day.

You do this to everyone you know,
you don’t care if they scream and cry.
All you do is cut and slash.

and I ask myself over and over,
Why don’t I leave you?
Why can’t I get away?
Why, oh why... do I keep coming back into your skin melting arms?

And even though I ask all these questions,
I already know the answer,
just like all your other friends, we know.

You’re simply the worst.
You’re simply... Marlboro.

So watch and laugh as I pick you out,
Once again starting this act, this farce.
