They say that I'm ugly, I know that I'm shy
I can't get a woman 'cause I never try
I tear myself down for things that I lack
Yet end up a fool lying flat on my back
Look out
Self-abuse
Ain't no use
Self-abuse
I want all these women, or so it seems
And late at night, I'm the king of my dreams
But my dreams are broken, and things are the same
I need a new outlook, it's time for a change
Alright
Self-abuse
Ain't no use
Self-abuse
Every time they look my way
I just go weak in the knees
But crawlin' like a snake to them
Ain't gonna make a man outta me
Ow
Self-abuse
Ain't no use
Self-abuse
Ow, I know it's wrong, I know it's bad
It makes me happy, Lord it makes me sad
Self-abuse, I gotta stop it
Self-abuse, know what I'm talkin' about?
Oh
