Lyrics Material Boy - Sir Sly
I
love
material,
but
everything
I
love's
so
quickly
falls
apart
Keep
it
to
myself
and
in
my
heart
And
I'm
only
as
sick
as
my
secrets
So
baby,
tell
me
what
is
my
weakness
I
called
the
therapist,
she
sent
me
to
a
circle
to
sort
it
out
I've
got
my
foot
in
my
mouth
My
medicine's
stopped
working
for
my
sick
soul
Under
the
pressure,
I
fold
And
I
opened
up
my
heart
and
found
a
spiritual
void
This
is
a
spiritual
world,
I'm
a
material
boy
And
I
opened
up
my
heart
and
found
a
spiritual
void
This
is
a
spiritual
world,
I'm
a
material
boy
I'm
a
material
boy
Deeply
American,
which
is
to
say
I'm
deeply
ashamed
I
wonder
what
the
world
would
say?
And
I'm
probably
sick
from
my
secrets
Politically
daft,
but
we're
in
deep
shit
Can't
tell
the
circle
that
the
red
has
got
me
paranoid
Superiority
keeps
me
annoyed
It
bears
repeating
that
I'm
sick
and
have
to
quit
No
longer
Christian,
but
I'm
still
afraid
of
judgement
And
I
opened
up
my
heart
and
found
a
spiritual
void
This
is
a
spiritual
world,
I'm
a
material
boy
And
I
opened
up
my
heart
and
found
a
spiritual
void
This
is
a
spiritual
world,
I'm
a
material
boy
I'm
a
material
boy
I
filled
all
my
pockets
Checked
all
the
boxes
I
couldn't
escape
Still
find
myself
obnoxious
Prideful
and
godless
Selfish
and
thoughtless
Capital
dream
for
material
boy
That
I
went,
and
I
lost
it
I
went
and
I
lost
it
all
And
I
opened
up
my
heart
and
found
a
spiritual
void
This
is
a
spiritual
world,
I'm
a
material
boy
And
I
opened
up
my
heart
and
found
a
spiritual
void
(It's
a
spiritual
world,
I'm
a
material
boy)
It's
a
spiritual
world,
I'm
a
material
boy
(It's
a
spiritual
world,
I'm
a
material
boy)
