Megalomaniac

[*Marilyn Monroe*]

I love the Incubus song, "Megalomaniac", but what does it mean?

Here are the lyrics...to anyone who hasn't heard it.

"Hey megalomaniac
You're no Jesus,
Yeah, you're no f***ing Elvis.
Wash your hands clean of yourself
Baby, just step down, step down, step down"

Anyone want to explain this to me?

eh, it's so overplayed.

have you ever seen the video to it? that explains the lyrics, but think about it. it's election year. ;)

A megalomaniac is one who has a psychopathological condition characterized by delusional fantasies of wealth, power, or omnipotence.

I like that song.

haha...I got it now. I'd never seen the whole video before today. Kind of confusing at first, but I really like the video. Creative.

Thanks.

never said I didn't like it. just said it was overplayed in my part of the country.

megalomaniac sounds too much like a hoobastank song X(

The video is really cool and I like the song too.
