From the album Memetic Heretic

lyrics

COMPARE–COMPETE–CONTEND

So I don't want all o' that?
You expect me to swallow that?
How 'bout some, for the fun of it?
It's better than having none if it.

Compare – compete – contend:
What message are you trying to send?

Disagree just 'cause you doubt it,
despite that I know all about it,
as though you hold the lease
on experience and expertise.

Compare – compete – contend:
When you attack, I must defend.

Why is it that you hate me
when you should congratulate me?
God forbid you'd give a compliment
to a friend for his accomplishment.

And yet again – your taunting
with the privilege or prize you're vauting;
then, in the successive breath,
envying my success to death.

Compare – compete – contend:
Is this how ya treat a friend?
