My Selfish Gene

You, me and destiny

Guess that it was never meant to be

All you did was give me allergy

I'm not looking for your sympathyYou, me and destiny

I am courted by uncertainty

I've lost my will to live unselfishly

Altruism stinks of fallacyAnd my selfish gene

It fills up my spleen with bile

And all the while

I thought you gave a damnYou, me and destiny

Guess that it was never meant to be

All you needed was some courtesy

And I'm not waiting for an apologyMy selfish gene

It fills my spleen with bile

And all the while

I thought you gave a damn

Way back then I thought you gave a damn
