I've got a famous namesake
The same name as a fictional man in a widely acclaimed TV show
I've a reletively famous namesake
The same name as a character played by a handsome American actor
I've got a newfound fame now
Certain fans of the hit TV show have started adding me on Facebook
I've a reletively newfound fame now
I've been thinking of unique ways which I can use this to my benefit somehow
Message from Matilda saying: "Hey, how are ya doin'?
I'm a big fan of your acting
Are you working on a movie?"
From the moment that she sent it to the time of my reply
I was thinking of excuses not to use this to my advantage
"Who's dis?" is what I answered
"Your fan, Matilda"
I felt so famous
I acted grateful
Two months later my inbox overflows with a thousand goodbyes
It appears they killed my namesake in the finale of season 5
I felt so famous
I acted grateful
I had a taste now I'll kill for a mouthful
I run a fake celebrity facebook page now
Of a certain celebrity
Famous mainly in the 80's
His fans are gullible, none of them skeptical
They should be skeptical

THE ACHE OF EXISTENCE IS A LUXURY TO THOSE WHO THINK TOO MUCH
TOO MUCH TO THINK IS TO BE THE CURSED
WHY CAN'T MY CONSCIOUSNESS RESIDE AS A RADIO BROADCAST FORMAT?
SURELY BY NOW SOMEBODY MUST HAVE ALREADY THOUGHT OF THAT
I WANNA BE FOOTAGE OF A MEMORY
THE ACHE OF EXISTENCE IS DULL AND PERSISTENT
A LONESOME RELENTLESS HISS
MY CONSCIOUSNESS IS STATIC NOISE
I THINK I'LL TUNE IT TO A STATION
I LOOKED FOR PLACES WHERE I FELT LIKE I COULD BELONG
I'LL LOOK FOR REASONS TO GO BACK AND TRY AGAIN

THE DEVIL HAS LEFT THE DETAIL, SON
ELVIS MAKES HELL FOR CONSPIRATOR CUNTS
SHADOWY TATTOO OF AN EVIL EYE ON
AN I.T. EXPERT'S INNER THIGH
THE TOTALITARIAN'S GOT YOUR TONGUE
WHILE THE WILE E. COYOTE'S ON HIS WEEKLY RUN
SYLVESTER'S OUT THE BAG BUT THE BOX UNTOUCHED
THINK TWICE BIG BROTHER
THINK TWICE AGAIN
SIT DOWN. SHUT UP. WIDE EYES. BIG FROWN.
WHITE LIES. NOT NOW. FAT CATS. BIG DICKS.
SPEAK OUT. BLACKLIST. FUCK THIS. TOUGH LUCK.
BUST NUTS ALL OVER THE LAPTOP.
LIE DOWN. SHUT UP. CLOSED EYES. WE WON.
I'M WISE. NUH-UH. NO PHONE. WHAT'S THIS?
HA HA! STIFF LIPS. BIG CHEESE: SUCK THIS.
HEY BUDDY, I WANNA KNOW YOU
BETTER THAN YOUR BEST FRIEND
I'LL CORRECT YOUR SENTENCES FOR YOU
HEY BUDDY, I WANNA SEE YOU
CLEARER THAN YOUR WEBCAM
I'LL DELETE YOUR HISTORY FOR YOU
HEY BUDDY, I WANNA KNOW MORE ABOUT YOU
THAN YOUR GIRLFRIEND CAN EVER POSSIBLY WANT TO
I WANNA KNOW WHAT YOU WANT TO BUY ONLINE
VOLUNTARILY SHARING ALL YOUR INFORMATION
WITH BRIGHT BLUE TWO-FACED CORPORATION
COMPLAIN WHEN SOLD AWAY TO RICH ASAINS FOR MONEY
YOUR EMAIL ADDRESS IS WORTH MONEY
INNOVATIVE THIEVES BANG QWERTY KEYS
JUST ACROSS THE STREET OR ACROSS THE SEA
WAITING FOR THE HERALD OF A PAID VACATION
TO PASS BY YOUR GAFF TO SMASH THE PATIO PANES IN
TELL YOUR FRIEND OF A FRIEND OF A FRIEND
THAT YOUR BABY WAS BORN AT 21:45
DIRECTLY FOLLOWED BY INSPIRATIONAL QUOTES
AND A FUNNY DOG WHO GETS BOOPED ON THE NOSE
KOREA SPIES WITH MECHANICAL EYES
KIM SEES YOU ANALYSE THE CABLE GUY
ON ONE OF YOUR MATES OLD VHS TAPES
IT JUST GOES TO SHOW THAT NO ONE'S SAFE
HEY BUDDY,
I WANNA KNOW YOU
BETTER THAN YOUR BEST FRIEND
I'LL CORRECT YOUR SENTENCES FOR YOU
HEY BUDDY, I WANNA SEE YOU
CLEARER THAN YOUR WEBCAM
I'LL DELETE YOUR HISTORY FOR YOU
HEY BUDDY, I WANNA KNOW MORE ABOUT YOU
THAN YOUR GIRLFRIEND CAN EVER POSSIBLY WANT TO
I WANNA KNOW WHAT YOU WANT TO BUY ONLINE
