Sincerity Is Scary

《Sincerity Is Scary》關於自我批判。主唱馬蒂·希利嘗試譴責自己充滿諷刺意味而失去真誠的後現代主義思想。爵士小號手Roy Hargrove在該曲中演奏 ^[2]  。

And irony is okay I suppose culture is to blame

You try and mask your pain in the most postmodern way

You lack substance when you say

Something like oh what a shame

It's just a self-referential way that stops you having to be human

I'm assuming you'll balloon when you remove the dirty spoon

And start consuming like a human that's what I am assuming

I'm sure that you're not just another girl

I'm sure that you're gonna say that I was sexist

I feel like you're running out of all the things I liked you for

Why can't we be friends when we are lovers

'Cause it always ends with us hating each other

Instead of calling me out you should be pulling me in

I've just got one more thing to say

And why would you believe

You could control how you're perceived

When at your best you're intermediately

Versed in your own feelings

Keep on putting off conceiving

It's only you that you're deceiving

Oh don't have a child don't cramp your style I'll leave it

Why can't we be friends when we are lovers

'Cause it always ends with us hating each other

Instead of calling me out you should be pulling me in

I've just got one more thing to say

I'm just pissed off because you pied me off

After your show when you let go of my hand

In front of some sket who wanted bit on your

Nah I'm just messing ^[3]
