You're just a waste of time
You're just a babbling face
You're just three sick holes that run like sores

You're a fucking waste
You're like a slug on the girl
Oh you're useless and ugly
And useless and ugly
And I shiver and shake

When I think of how you make me hate
I want to smash you to pieces
I want to smash you up and screaming
I want to smash you helpless
Down on the floor
Smash you until you're not here anymore

And I shiver and shake
Shiver and shake

    General Comment:That's what Robert Smith has said in a few interviews, but somehow I doubt it.

    For one thing, Lol was still a member of the band at this stage. Would he have really played on a song that was basically attacking him?

    Also, Robert Smith seems to have been really negative towards Tolhurst in interviews since the court case (understandably). I wonder if that is an example of this?

    Perhaps there's a few different interpretations of the song... whenever I listen to it, I can't help but feel it's about self-loathing... but, really that's just a possible interpretation of the song.

    General Comment:According to Wikipedia, kid pirate is right. Lol was abusing alcohol and drugs, and by the time Disintegration came out he wasn't contributing anything anymore.
