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 |
