The Butterfly Collector Lyrics

    So you finally got what you wanted
    You've achieved your aim by making me walk in line
    And when you just can't get any higher
    You use your senses to suss out this week's climber
    And the small fame that you've acquired
    Has brought you into cult status
    But to me you're still a collector

    There's tarts and whores but you're much more
    You're a different kind 'cause you want their minds
    And you just don't care 'cause you've got no pride
    It's just a face on your pillowcase
    That thrills you

    And you started looking much older
    And your fashion sense is second rate like your perfume
    But to you in your little dream world
    You're still the queen of the butterfly collectors

    As you carry on 'cause it's all you know
    You can't light a fire
    You can't cook or sew
    You get from day to day by filling your head
    But surely you must know the appeal between your legs
    Has worn off

    And i don't care about morals
    'cause the world's insane and we're all to blame anyway
    And i don't feel any sorrow
    Towards the kings and queens of the butterfly collectors

    There's tarts and whores but you're much more
    You're a different kind 'cause you want their minds
    And you just don't care 'cause you've got no pride
    It's just a face on your pillowcase
    That thrills you

    As you carry on 'cause it's all you know
    You can't light a fire
    You can't cook or sew
    You get from day to day by filling your head
    But surely you must know the appeal between your legs
    Has worn off

    And i don't feel any sorrow
    Towards the kings and queens of the butterfly collectors
