Lyrics - Break Me Down by Bottle Rocket

Bought me a bargain basement laboratory
With a rack and a humpback elf.
Then
I sewed together all the glory i'd collected
To immortalize my good self
Thought i'd build me a better
Frankenstein
But the monster turned on me
No slobbering torchlit pitchfork mob
Could ever kill this vanity
Lord, you made every part of me
I'm ready
Break
Me
Down
Won't you
Break
Me
Down
Made me a really monumental monument
I set each shiny brick.
And
I grew so high a jet flew by
And the fumes sort of made me sick
If my
Father shaped the universe
Then why do
I still insist
On playing
God
When
I'm a fraud
I'm a certified narcissist
You fashioned every part of me
I'm ready
Break
Me
Down
Break
Me
Down
Do what you do to me
I know you see through me
Break
Me
Down
Break
Me
Down
Break
Me
Down
Break
Me
Down
Break
Me
Down
Break
Me
Down
