Paroles
I always thought I could take as I wanted,
They use to call me their beautiful boy
But whilst I took my fill from all that I fancied,
Those I fancied I would seek to destroy
Just a shagger not a lover of consequence,
The kind of lover that just loves to be free,
Cause baby I put the con in confidence,
And what you're offering has no value to me
And if I had to ask a personal question,
I'd probably ask you what you're wanting to drink
I've had my share and taken more than I've given,
But when the choice is mine I'd rather not think
So if you're feeling like I take you for granted,
I'm very sorry feelings just aren't my thing
I never waited on the things that I wanted,
conscience and cowardice are still the same thing
But what's left of me,
And if you cut me open,
I know what you would find,
The hollow generation,
inside a gilded mind
And though I'm really not the type you can talk to,
It seems it's cute that I habe nothing to say
I only smile and do my best to undress you,
It's not protection I was programmed this way
So if you're counting that we all have a conscience,
I'll be hanging out with all of your friends
Cause baby I put the con in confidence,
And I'll only leave you down in the end
But what's left of me,
And if you cut me open,
I know what you would find,
The hollow generation,
inside a gilded mind
And if you cut me open,
I know what you would find,
The hollow generation,
inside a gilded mind,
inside a guilded mind
