NO FAULT ENTITLEMENT

It’s not my fault, it never is.
I wasn’t there; that must be his.

Responsible, I never am.
And I refuse to give a damn

If others pay for what I take --
I just exist for my own sake.

And I’m entitled to the works.
I’m better than you other jerks.

So, if the blame should fall on me,
Accountable, I’ll never be.

I’ll turn my back and walk away,
And deaf ear turn to what you say.

I’ll hide behind my angry face
And dare you to invade my space.

‘Cause owning up I’ll never do
I much prefer to point -- and sue;

Accepting all that comes to me,
But not responsibility.
