The joys of self obsession

The joys of self obsession
Mean you never have to do
Anything that others say
If they don't agree with you

The joys of self obsession
Mean you never have to care
About anyone's opinion
On make-up, clothes or hair

The joys of self obsession
Mean that you can fool the people
Into thinking that you're gorgeous
When you're really nothing special

The joys of self obsession
Mean you can act like a queen
When all around you falter
With envy oh so green

The joys of self obsession
Mean you never have to heed
A well meaning warning
About self indulgent greed

The joys of self obsession
Mean ignoring people's feelings
Constantly judging others
Whilst living without meaning

The joys of self obsession
Mean you never have to worry
About offending anyone
Or ever having to say sorry

The joys of self obsession
Mean that all that you demand
Is automatically placed
In your outstretched hand

The joys of self obsession
Mean not playing by the book
And anything you want
Can be achieved with just one look

The joys of self obsession
Mean a puppet on a string
To obey your every want and wish
And grant you anything

The joys of self obsession
Oh they range so far and wide
From the 'Bow before me Diva'
To the ornamental bride

The joys of self obsession
Are vacuous and vast
The only problem is that
They never seem to last!
