Suck and suck
Suckin' up all you can, suckin' up all you can suck and suck
Workin' up under my patience like a little tick
Fat little parasite
Suck me dry

My friend is bruised and borrowed
You thieving bastards
You have turned my blood cold and bitter
Beat my compassion black and blue

Hope this is what you wanted
Hope this is what you had in mind
'Cause this is what you're getting
I hope you're choking
I hope you choke on this
I hope you're choking
I hope you choke on this

Taken all I can, taken all I can, I can take
Taken all you can, taken you can, we can take
Got nothing left to give to you

Blood suckin' parasitic little tick
blood suckin parasitic little
Blood suckin' parasitic little tick
Take what you want and then go

Hope this is what you wanted
Hope this is what you had in mind
'Cause this is what you're getting

Suck me dry
Suck, suck me dry
Sucking me dry
Suck, suck me dry

Is this what you wanted?
Is this what you had in mind?
Is this what you wanted?
'Cause this is what you're getting

I hope, I hope, I hope you choke

    I don't think so. Lol who would complain about tools music? Especially if they're a "fan". And how are these critics parasites? Also one of the lyrics is "we got nothing left to give you". If this song means what you say it does, then that lyric doesn't make sense because it would be like tool sayin" you ungrateful fans! We're not gonna make anymore music for you!". I think this song is more likely about record companies and rude people in general. You can interpret the song however you like, I just don't think tool has that terrible of fans, and I don't they would have felt so strongly about the few asshole critics to actually write this song just for them because I don't think the opinions of a few rude fans would perturb tool too much. However record companies trying to tell tool what to do and what their music should sound like would definitely get under their skin! Tool probably intended for this song to have many interpretations.
