A song about someone desperate for attention and praise, despite not being willing to put in the effort or take responsibility for their actions. One thing people seem to overlook is that this song is actually making fun of the protagonist. If you think "wow, they're just like me FR", the artist is actually insulting you.
An in-house cover by Aster can be found below. Aster is not a singer, though, so prepare your eardrums. You can also find the original version.
Unfunny as a skit that is unfunny
Is my excessive sense of fatigue
Pe-pe-pe-petroleum and I burst into flame
The thought captivates so why would I hesitate?
What’s as boring as a movie that’s quite boring?
The public scorn I can’t bear hearing!
Cornering the market on capricious pity
Will the world ever stop making fun of me?
Unable to work up the strength to crawl
Not long ‘til it’s the end of it all
Efforts built up are predestined to fall
As a member of the hooligan cabal
Oh please oh please
Someone look at me
Attention’s the only thing I need
Oh why Oh why
Am I so despised?
Today I’ll go play in Hell’s flames burning red
And when the day is done let’s drop dead
As foolish as a love that is really foolish
Are laughable tales of heroics
Pe-pe-pe-pedantic gazes looming over me
Seemingly deciding that I am not worth saving
Meaninglessly spitting out random lies
So vain though I can’t even get by
Bluffing until my back’s against the wall
As a member of the scoundrel cabal
Oh please oh please
Someone look at me
I’m certainly not above begging
Oh why Oh why
Am I so despised?
A lab rat in a cage has no joy ahead
So before tomorrow let’s drop dead
Aah, like that or like this
I am stuck in the abyss
Talentless and remiss
I should just accept death’s kiss
How did it end like this?
The reason is obvious
I have dropped the ball
As a member of the feeble cabal
And so: oh please oh please
Just acknowledge me
I’ve cut out my heart--it’s yours for free
Cornered rats fight back it has been said
So without regret I move ahead
Oh please oh please
Someone look at me
Attention’s the only thing I need
Oh why Oh why
Am I so despised?
So without regret I move ahead
If you relate then you should just drop dead!
