Here's more interesting things in songs and lyrics tied to Sonic Youth or about the 1990s in general.

A hundred dollars used to be more than enough
And now a hundred times a day and still it’s not enough
People always tell me you get what you deserve
All I know is all and all is all I’ve heard

I heard you say: “you know I hate myself
But I love everybody else”
And did you say: “I can’t escape myself”
And then you did and now there’s no one else

To blame you know that I know yeah that times are rough
I’d like to help you out but things are rather tough
People always tell me that you’ve got to lend a helping hand
Nothing in return is all I expect from you my friend

I heard you say: “you know I hate myself
But I love everybody else”
And did you say: “I can’t escape myself”
And then you did and now there’s no one else

I heard you say: “you know I hate myself
But I love everybody else”
And did you say: “I can’t escape myself”
And then you do and now there’s no one else
