The Bret Easton Ellis School of Witchcraft and Wizardry

[Intro]
Is this what you wanted?
Did you get what you wanted?
Is this what you wanted?
Did you get what you-

[Verse 1]
You’re hard tonight
The teeming life of those excusing cocaine use on Thursday nights
Explodes from bars into swerving cars
And all the while you ask yourself just who you are
I knew you when you went to shows and had more pins than a cushion
Now you work at some vaguely purposed startup
And spend your weekends spinning Best New Music tracks
And not calling girls back
So tell me, man

[Chorus]
Is this what you wanted?
Did you get what you wanted?
Is this what you wanted?
Did you get what you-
Stricken of meaning by sickening evenings
Is this what you wanted?
Did you get what you-

[Verse 2]
Your all boys’ school where you learned to fool around
Helps you overcompensate when you’re feeling down
Years of acne cream and fever dreams
Cut the courage from you like a laser beam
I knew you when you had a poster of Katie Holmes in your room
Because you thought she was the kind of girl who might
Realistically like you if you play your cards right
Where’s that shoddy hope tonight?

[Chorus]
Is this what you wanted?
Did you get what you wanted?
Is this what you wanted?
Did you get what you-
Stricken of meaning by sickening evenings
Is this what you wanted?
Did you get what you-
