Lyrics
Step up to the mirror, tell me what it is you see
Reflect on yourself and describe what you see in the mirror.
Really must be hard being you
Expresses empathy for the challenges the person faces.
4 lies you tell, you'll go to hell & I can't even wish you well
Pointing out lies told by the person, expressing disdain, and unwillingness to wish them well.
Soon you'll play yourself and you'll be through
Predicting that the person will deceive themselves and face consequences.
People like you want people like me
People with characteristics like yours want individuals like me to compromise my integrity.
To forget about my integrity
Encountering pressure to disregard personal integrity.
Try to pull a scam the best you can
Advising against attempting deceit and fraud.
Don't like traitors, don't like punks
Expressing dislike for traitors.
Don't like lyin' thieving chumps
Listing characteristics disliked: liars, thieves, and cheats.
Turned out you were just another stuntman!
Revealing that the person turned out to be a mere imitator or deceiver.
Used to be a time when I considered you a friend
Recalling a time when the person was considered a friend.
Faith in you you know I'd never lack
Emphasizing trust and faith in the person.
When I found out what you were all about
Discovering the true nature of the person.
And in my mind there is no doubt
Having no doubt that the friend betrayed.
My good friend has stabbed me in the back!
Expressing the feeling of betrayal, emphasizing a stab in the back.
Record companies mother fuckers!
Expressing frustration with record companies and their tactics.
Pullin' stunts like chicken pluckers
Comparing record companies' actions to deceptive maneuvers.
Tell me what the flavor is today
Questioning the current trend or style favored by the record companies.
Hardcore, grindcore, guitar, pop
List of musical genres, possibly indicating the unpredictability of the industry.
Won't play metal, you'll get dropped
Suggesting that not conforming to a specific genre may lead to rejection.
Then we'll have to send you on your way!
Indicating the consequence of not adhering to the record company's preferences.
But we'll be back!
Expressing determination to return despite setbacks.
