Cult Boyfriend

The Misfits are cult rock & roll
Worshipped by a few but ignored on the whole
Meet the Feebles is a film cult classic
It’s basically unknown but some say it’s fantastic
Most women that I meet seem totally unfazed
Til sometimes there somebody who seems totally amazed
I might not be in magazines as a heart throb face
But in a few devoted hearts I’ve found a strong fan base
I’m a cult boyfriend, not a mainstream show
I’m lonely or I’m worshiped by a lady in the know
When you’re a cult boyfriend, life is always intense
They love me or they hate me no one’s on the fence
Cerebus is cult comic book series
It’s got fans but it’s never found in movies or in theories
WFMU is a cult radio station
Always tuned to by a few devoted fans around the nation
For every time I couldn’t get a second date or even first
Why does one think I’m the best when all the rest think I’m the worst
All of those times no one at all wanted to know
If I’m really all that awesome wouldn’t more people think so
I guess Cult Boyfriend is the term for me
It’s always been quality not quantity
A cult boyfriend’s like a record in a bargain bin
No one knows what it’s worth ‘til a collector comes in
Hm, who are some cult literary figures I can honor
Maybe J. G. Ballard or Flannery O’Connor
Haggis and Fugu, that’s like food for cult eaters
Jim Jones, Charles Manson, Father Yod, they’re cult leaders
Anyways the point being, do I have to be magical?
Can’t we date a few months and then move on normal and casual
Suicidally alone and then totally smothered
It’s so much pressure when you go from one extreme to the other
I guess Cult Boyfriend is the term for me
It’s always been quality not quantity
A cult boyfriend’s like a record in a bargain bin
No one knows what it’s worth ‘til a collector comes in
I’m a cult boyfriend, not a mainstream show
I’m lonely or I’m worshiped by a lady in the know
When you’re a cult boyfriend, life is always intense
They’re in love or they’re indifferent, no one’s on the fence
And this song ain’t probably gonna go far past an open mic
It’s guaranteed though two or three people are really gonna like it
