Be the first to rate this song

Lyrics

Cheated the way from fringe to elite

Cheating or manipulating the path from being on the outskirts to becoming part of the privileged and influential group

Clique of stylists

A close-knit group of fashion-conscious individuals

Rounded illogic skipping a beat

Using flawed reasoning or irrationality, missing a rhythmic or logical beat

To a dead cert

Heading confidently towards an inevitable outcome or conclusion


Dry-heaving charges and bursting the abscess

Expressing disgust or revulsion, exposing corruption or dishonesty

With a forked tongue

Speaking deceitfully or insincerely

Bloated with courage

Full of false bravery or arrogance

And spewing with cloying self-importance

Overflowing with a nauseating sense of self-importance


Drop your targets

Lower your goals or ambitions

Aim sights lower

Direct your attention to less influential or powerful individuals

Leave unblemished those with real power

Protect or leave unharmed those who possess genuine authority or influence


Smear Campaign

A campaign aimed at tarnishing reputations or spreading damaging information


Stroke two faces

Flatter or support two different groups or individuals for personal gain

Nests to feather

Benefiting from or exploiting situations to gain advantages

Leave unblemished those with real power

Protect or leave unharmed those who possess genuine authority or influence


A thousand cuts

Inflicting numerous, albeit minor, damaging actions on oneself

Beat yourself proud

Take pride in self-inflicted harm or degradation

Leave unblemished those with real power

Protect or leave unharmed those who possess genuine authority or influence
