Cult Boyfriend

The Misfit's are cult rock & roll

Worshipped by a few but ignored on the whole

Meet the Feebles is a film cult classic

It's basically unknown but some

Say it's fantastic

Most women that I meet seem totally unfazed

Til sometimes there somebody who

Seems totally amazed

I might not be in magazines

As a heart throb face

But in a few devoted hearts I've

Found a strong fan base

I'm a cult boyfriend, not a mainstream show

I'm lonely or I'm worshiped by

A lady in the know

When you're a cult boyfriend

Life is always intense

They love me or they hate me

No one's on the fence

Cerebus is cult comic book series

It's got fans but it's never found

In movies or in theories

WFMU is a cult radio station

Always tuned to by a few

Devoted fans around the nation

For every time I couldn't get a

Second date or even first

Why does one think I'm the best when

All the rest think I'm the worst

All of those times no one

At all wanted to know

If I'm really all that awesome

Wouldn't more people think so

I guess Cult Boyfriend is the term for me

It's always been quality not quantity

A cult boyfriend's like a record

In a bargain bin

No one knows what it's worth

‘til a collector comes in

Hm, who are some cult literary

Figures I can honor

Maybe J g ballard or Flannery O'Connor

Haggis and Fugu

That's like food for cult eaters

Jim Jones, Charles Manson, Father Yod

They're cult leaders

Anyways the point being

Do I have to be magical?

Can't we date a few months and

Then move on normal and casual

Suicidally alone and then totally smothered

It's so much pressure when you go

From one extreme to the other

I guess Cult Boyfriend is the term for me

It's always been quality not quantity

A cult boyfriend's like a record

In a bargain bin

No one knows what it's worth

‘til a collector comes in

I'm a cult boyfriend, not a mainstream show

I'm lonely or I'm worshiped by

A lady in the know

When you're a cult boyfriend

Life is always intense

They're in love or they're indifferent

No one's on the fence

And this song ain't probably gonna go

Far past an open mic

It's guaranteed though two or three people

Are really gonna like it
