    Lyrics
    All brawn and no brains
    And all those nice things
    You FINALLY got what you want
    Someone to look good with
    AND light your cigarette
    Is this what you really want?

    I figured out what you're all about
    And I don't think I like what I see
    SOOOOO...
    I HOPE I won't be there
    In the end IF you come around.

    How long will he last
    Before he's a CREEP in the past
    And you're alone once again?
    Will you pop up AGAIN and be my "SPECIAL FRIEND" 'till the end?
    And when will that be?
