Devon - Selfish Girl Lyrics
I am what I hateNow I hate who I amI torture animalsSo I can have shiny, bouncy hairBlinding rats and rabbitsSo my mascara is safe to wearI pay children seven cents an hourTo make my designer jeansNine years old, sixteen hoursBehind those sewing machinesAnd it doesnt seem to bother meI am only concerned with my personal needsAnd it doesnt occur to meThat everything I doAffects something, someone, somewhere out thereIn the worldIm a selfish girlI throw away more food in a dayThan most people eat in a weekI allow myself the luxury of starvingBecause thin is in, and I have the choiceI stand by allowing crime to happenCause I dont want to strain my voiceI dont want to get involvedBecause, hey, its not my problem to solveAnd it doesnt seem to bother meI am only concerned with my personal needsAnd it doesnt occur to meThat everything I doAffects something, someone, somewhere out thereIn the worldIm a selfish girlThere are so many things wrong in the worldIts hard to not be part of the problemBut I have to be responsibleI have to bear the blameBecause everywhere I turnI am causing someone elses painI dont want to cause anybody elses painAnd it definitely bothers meThat Ive only been concerned with my personal needsAnd it finally occurred to meThat everything I doAffects something, someone, somewhere out thereIn the worldI dont want to be a selfish girlI just take, take, take, take, take, takeFrom this worldI dont want to be a selfish girlI dont want to be a selfish girl
