Bought me a bargain basement laboratory with a rack and a humpback elf,
Then I sewed together all the glory I'd collected to immortalise my good self,
Thought I'd build me a better Frankenstein, but the monster turned on me,
No slobbering, torch-lit, pitchfork mob could ever kill this vanity.

Lord, you made every part of me,
I'm ready...
Break me down,
Won't you break me down'

Made me a really monumental monument; I set each shiny brick,
And it grew so high a jet flew by and the fumes sort of made me sick,
If my father shaped the universe, then why do I still insist on playing God when I'm a fraud'
I'm a certified narcissist.

You fashioned every part of me,
I'm ready...
Break me down,
Won't you break me down'
Do what you do to me,
I know you see through me,
Break me down.

Break me down, break me down, break me down,
Break me down, break me down, break me down.
