Miss Black America 5x5 Lyrics

5x5 Lyrics

Music & Lyrics: Seymour Glass







They said, "never pass up on a good thing"



Like it was all just a matter of asking



And kissing cold, dead lips and hands and asses



I built a legoland of fortune



I stuck posters on my wall to worship



Tori's hair and Brad Pitt's six-pack







Where is the sin?



Is it worse not to like yourself



Or pretend that everything's just fine?







Full steam ahead



5x5



Full steam ahead, boys



5x5







They took notes.



It felt, I told them, like I was failing an audition



They said that was not how this should feel



I filled a questionnaire out for them



I held a match under my foreskin



I left a scar I hoped would never, ever heal







I am alive



Because I can't be satisfied



To rest on your laurels is to die inside







Full steam ahead



5x5



Full steam ahead, boys



5x5
