Make Yourself

If I hadn't made me, I would've been made somehow
If I hadn't assembled myself, I'd have fallen apart by now
If I hadn't made me, I'd be more inclined to bow
Powers that be, would have swallowed me up
But that's more than I can allow

If you let them make you, they'll make you paper mache
At a distance you're strong, until the wind comes then you crumble and blow away
If you let them fuck you, there will be no foreplay
Rest assured, they'll screw you complete til your ass is blue and gray

You should make amends with you
If only for better health,
But if you really want to live
Why not try, and make yourself

If I hadn't made me, I'd have fallen apart by now
I won't let them make me, It's more than I can allow
So when I make me, I won't be paper mache
And if I fuck me, I'll fuck me my own way
