A snippet of the track… Read More [Verse 1]

You pull me by my hair so I don't go nowhere

Tell me you love me, but you treat me like I'm never there

You say the cruelest words, and yes, they break my heart

'Cause I'm over here working my ass off

[Pre-Chorus]

Why is it so hard to see? (Why?)

If I cut myself, I would bleed (Ouch)

I'm just like you, you're like me

Imperfect and human are we

[Chorus]

Show and tell

I'm on display for all you fuckers to see

Show, you tell

Harsh words if you don't get a pic with me

Buy and sell (Buy and sell me, baby)

Like I'm a product to society

Art don't sell

Unless you've fucked every authority

[Verse 2]

You beg and cry for more, and yet I'm on the floor

There are strangers takin' pictures of me when I ask "No more"

It's really hard for me to say just how I feel

I'm scared that I'll get thrown away like a banana peel

[Pre-Chorus]

Why is it so hard to see? (Why?)

If I cut myself, I would bleed (Ouch)

I'm just like you, you're like me

Imperfect and human are we

[Chorus]

Show and tell (Show and tell)

I'm on display for all you fuckers to see (Fuckers to see)

Show, you tell (Show and tell)

Harsh words if you don't get a pic with me

Buy and sell (Buy and sell)

Like I'm a product to society

Art don't sell

Unless you've fucked every authority

[Bridge]

Show and tell, ah-ah-ah-ah

Why can't you fucking hear me?

Show and tell, ahem

Are you listening yet?

[Chorus]

Show and tell (Show and tell, baby)

I'm on display for all you fuckers to see (Fuckers to see)

Show, you tell (Oh)

Harsh words if you don't get a pic with me

Buy and sell

Like I'm a product to society

Art don't sell

Unless you've fucked every authority
