No more! The crap rolls out your mouth again Haven't changed, your brain is still gelatine Little whispers circle around your head Why don't you worry about yourself instead? Who are you? Where ya been? Where ya from? Gossip is burning on the tip of your tongue You lie so much, you believe yourself Judge not lest ye be judged yourself Holier than thou You are Holier than thou You are You know not Before you judge me, take a look at you Can't you find something better to do? Point the finger, slow to understand Arrogance and ignorance go hand in hand It's not who you are, it's who you know Others lives are the basis of your own Burn your bridges, and built them back with wealth Judge not lest ye be judged yourself Holier than thou You are Holier than thou You are You know not (Yeah! who the hell are you?) Holier than thou You are Holier than thou You are You know not Not!
