The end of the asterisk

On considering religion
Or military conscription
Is the moment I realise I'm stuck

Asserting ourselves at traffic lights
In foreign countries in the very dead of night
Is the moment I realise I'm stuck

Uh oh, uh oh, uh oh, uh oh
This is the end of the asterisk
Babe, that punk's got nothing on me
This is the end of the footnote

Extorting money from your parents
Your disgusting parents.

Honestly, you're an absolute waste of time
Craving attention with your self-deprecation
I'll tell you one thing:
It's spot on and I'm better

Uh oh, uh oh, uh oh, uh oh
This is the end of the asterisk
Babe, that one's got nothing on me
This is the end of the footnote

Extorting money from your parents
Your disgusting parents.

Honestly, you're an absolute tragedy
Not like 'heroically' in all of the books you read.
I read your novella, oh how I laughed
Killed off the lot of them
