Wannabe Gadfly

Make me drink the poison

Remember my name with fame

Pretend my death was for knowledge

That my genius was sullied as sin

Just tell me, baby, I am the gadfly

Make believe like I knew something

Something special, something grand

Provoke my victims, be the gadfly

Insist to all the crime was selfless

Just tell them, baby, I bit The Man

Compare their bitemarks to my coffin

Have pallbearers shake their hands

Drag this out and be obnoxious

Just fake it, babes

I am the gadfly
