Lyrics
I was born into a good life
To a wealthy family
Got my education
And with a modest gift of millions
Struck out on my own
The boardroom is a jungle
It'll eat you alive
You've got to have a killer instinct
If you want to survive
But when I look out the window of my high-rise
At all the little people down there
They don't seem to care
What does it take to to get the respect I deserve?
I'm a self-made man, for god's sake
They ought to be lining up to shine my shoes
I bed all the most elegant girls
Check out my second wife
Those little piss-ants are just jealous
They wish they had my life
Nobody Likes Me
OK, I get it, you're not successful
You're not as smart as I am
Worked as hard as I have
Your blood is poisoned
By diversity and compromise
Too lazy to keep your eye on the prize
But that's no reason
To shine a light on my misdeeds
To hold me to the standards of a peasant
To say I hoard my wealth
To the detriment of the poor and sick
And have the gall to call me unpleasant
Nobody Likes Me
I'll take it all from you
I run this whole damn system
I'll run this country and I'll flush it down the tubes
You'll work your life away
I'll take the wealth you made for me
And I'll shoot it into space
Nobody Likes Me
It's so lonely up here
You'll work your life away
I'll take the wealth you made for me
And I'll take it to my grave

Seriously, this is a nice bit of scathing satire, and a great groove and catchy chorus too!!
