[00:01.73] But, uh, it helps me sleep at night

[00:15.26] Art is dead

[00:18.22] Art is dead

[00:21.23] Art is dead

[00:23.98] Art is dead

[00:26.73] Entertainers like to seem complicated

[00:30.49] But we're not complicated

[00:32.74] I can explain it pretty easily

[00:36.23] Have you ever been to a birthday party for children

[00:39.74] And one of the children won't stop screaming

[00:42.48] 'Cause he's just a little attention-attractor

[00:45.50] When he grows up to be a comic or actor

[00:48.24] He'll be rewarded for never maturing

[00:50.73] For never understanding or learning

[00:53.74] That every day can't be about him

[00:56.49] There's other people, you selfish asshole!

[00:59.98] I must be psychotic

[01:00.96] I must be demented

[01:02.51] To think that I'm worthy of all this attention

[01:04.48] Of all of this money you worked really hard for

[01:07.98] I slept in late while you worked at the drug store

[01:11.23] My drug's attention

[01:12.25] I am an addict

[01:13.98] But I get paid to indulge in my habit

[01:16.50] It's all an illusion

[01:17.99] I'm wearing makeup

[01:19.23] I'm wearing makeup

[01:20.74] Makeup

[01:21.47] Makeup

[01:22.24] Makeuuu--p

[01:23.98] Art is dead

[01:25.73] So, people think you're funny

[01:27.00] How do we get those people's money?

[01:28.48] I said art is dead

[01:31.26] We're rolling in dough while Carlin rolls in his grave

[01:35.51] His grave

[01:36.78] His grave

[01:39.76] The show has got a budget

[01:41.99] The show has got a budget

[01:44.75] And all the poor people way more deserving

[01:47.75] Of the money won't budge it

[01:50.23] 'Cause I wanted my name in lights

[01:53.22] When I could have fed a family of four

[01:55.73] For forty fucking fortnights

[01:58.73] Forty fucking fortnights!

[02:01.00] I am an artist

[02:02.23] Please God, forgive me

[02:03.47] I am an artist

[02:04.74] Please don't revere me

[02:06.22] I am an artist

[02:07.50] Please don't respect me

[02:08.75] I am an artist

[02:10.02] Feel free to correct me

[02:11.74] A self-centered artist

[02:13.00] Self-obsessed artist

[02:13.98] I am an artist

[02:15.72] I am an artist

[02:17.25] But I'm just a kid

[02:18.24] I'm just a kid

[02:19.48] I'm just a kid, kid

[02:21.73] And maybe I'll grow out of it
