The rest of the lyrics:

And if you cut yourself, you will think you're happy
He'll keep you in a jar, then you'll make him happy
He'll give you breathing holes, then you'll think you're happy
He'll cover you with grass, then you'll think you're happy now

And if you fool yourself, you will make him happy
He'll keep you in a jar, then you'll think you're happy
He'll give you breathing holes, then you will seem happy
You'll wallow in your shit, then you'll think you're happy now
