'06: "Quotes" - The Magnetic Fields

All those quotes you never said

For some of which you could have sued

Oh, the hateful mail you’ve read

Defending things you’ve not reviewed

All for a punchier headline

Even when the article was thine

Dramatic quotes so rarely true

Has this been happening to you

All those quotes you never said

More famous than you’ll ever be

All those prices on your head

For nothing much to do with thee

Some make fun of your speech defects

Some make fun of your homosexuality

Some of your height

Whatever, please just quote you right

All those quotes you never said

Will drown out anything you say

All those trolls who want you dead

Will dance 'round your auto da fe
