The Nobodies

Today I'm dirty
I want to be pretty
Tomorrow I know I'm just dirt
Today I'm dirty
And I want to be pretty
Tomorrow I know I'm just dirt

We are the nobodies
Wanna be somebodies
When we're dead
They'll know just who we are
We are the nobodies
Wanna be somebodies
When we're dead
They'll know just who we are

Yesterday I was dirty
Wanted to be pretty
I know now that I'm forever dirt
Yesterday I was dirty
Wanted to be pretty
I know now that I'm forever dirt

We are the nobodies
Wanna be somebodies
When we're dead
They'll know just who we are
We are the nobodies
Wanna be somebodies
When we're dead
They'll know just who we are

Some children died the other day
We fed machines and then we prayed
Puked up and down in morbid faith
You should have seen the ratings that day
Some children died the other day
We fed machines and then we prayed
Puked up and down in morbid faith
You should have seen the ratings that day

Na na na na na

We are the nobodies
We wanna be somebodies
When we're dead
They'll know just who we are
(Na na na na na
Na na na na na
Na na na na na
Na na na na)

We are the nobodies
Wanna be somebodies
When we're dead
They'll know just who we are
(Na na na na na
Na na na na na
Na na na na na)

We are the nobodies
Wanna be somebodies
When we're dead
They'll know just who we are
