Lyrics

Kurt

I just had to get out of this three ring circus
This was not how it was meant to be

They billed me as the prophet of the young and without purpose
Put my band on MTV

How did I get so important?
I forgot what I was singing for
They made me into an informant
Now it’s not fun for me anymore.

I hold my little girl up as a myth for the press
The illusion of serenity amidst the distress

Everybody tells me that the money is success
But I guess I don’t see it because my life is such a mess

How did I get so important
I feel like some kind of whore
They made me into an informant
Now it’s not fun for me anymore

Truthful vengeance is a dangerous thing
When we begin to live the words that we sing

The truth is that inside I’m really all torn apart
Somehow that sold records and it put me on the charts

So how did I get so important
I forgot what I was singing for
I shoot me up then I shoot me down
Now I’m a pool of blood on a rich man’s floor
Cause it’s not fun for me anymore
Cause it’s not fun for me anymore
It’s not fun for me anymore
It’s not fun for me anymore
