You end up like a dog that's been beat too much
'Til you spend half your life just coverin' up

The whole damned world is just as obsessed
With who's the best dressed and who's having sex
Who's got the money, who gets the honeys

And you don't have the right friends
Nothing changes but the faces, the names and the trends
