Mark Shepard, "Modern-Jedi" Songwriter

Home | Funny Songs | Narcissism

Commentary:
Perception is projection baby! We all walk around in this self absorbed trance of self concern, self importance. For better or for worse we are all to some degree Narcissists...Of course songwriters and other artists are especially good at it.

"But enough about me," said the songwriter, "what do you think of my stuff?" ;o)

-Mark

Play "Narcissism"

Narcissism

Refrain:

Narcissism, narcissism

You know you're really livin'

When you're lookin' through the prism

Of good ol' Narcissism

If you want to get ahead in life

You better get this right

People don't want to hear about you
they want you to hear about them

Refrain:

If you ever get totally bored

Just get self absorbed

You'll never find a friend dearer

Than the one inside the mirror

So smile and look again!

Refrain:

What've I've thought about you is all wrong

It's been all about me all along

What you think about me is all about you

So we might as well sing this song...together!

Refrain:

No matter what your religion,

You and I are alike as pigeons

We all want to be V.I.P.'s

It's just a part of living

Refrain:

I could probably soar like an Eagle

If it weren't for my great big Ego

Because of this I get easily pissed

But I swear I'm not a narcissist!
