Don’t be an attention whore
When you have problems, you suck it up
Be cool, even when you are burning
In anger, in pain, in frustration, in confusion, in endlessness
Don’t be an attention whore
No one cares if you cry
No one wants to know if you are in pain
No one has time for your pleas
Suck it up, suck it up
Don’t be an attention whore
Even when you never feel more alone
Be tough, be like an alpha
Women don’t cry, ahh, they do
Just like you
Don’t be an attention whore
Even when every nerves and your cells are both burning and shivering
Even when you can no longer work or breathing
Work, more work
Do, more do
People need your work, your outcome, your effort
But they don’t need you
They don’t need your plea
They don’t need your complaints
They don’t need your fear
They don’t need you to ask questions
They need you to get it right and tight
They need you to be full
They need you to be, to be, to be more
So, don’t be an attention whore, you whore
Smile, sit silently
Suck it up
Swallow it
You are paid already, overflowing in fact
Open your brain, wider, just like you open your legs
Don’t be an attention whore, whore
It’s already good we adopt and accept you in
Don’t be an attention whore, you whore
Be a whore, a nice and obedient whore
The staple of whores
Now, don’t cry anymore, write more for our board
No, don’t write more for your pleasure, you whore
Stop being an attention whore
