“…as I go showing off again
Self-impressed by how well I can put myself down!
And there I go again
To the next further removed level
Of that same exact feigned humility!”

“I pick myself up off the ground to have you knock me back down
Again and again”

Nick Lowe (1949) British singer

"Cruel to Be Kind" on the single Little Hitler / Cruel to Be Kind (1978) (Top of the Pops 1979) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-JJ7oGHwMTI
Context: I pick myself up off the ground to have you knock me back down
Again and again and when I ask you to explain
You say, you've got to be...
Cruel to be kind in the right measure
Cruel to be kind it's a very good sign
Cruel to be kind means that I love you
Baby, you got to be cruel, you got to be cruel to be kind.

For weariness of thee,
Nor in hope the world can show
A fitter love for me;

Must die at last, 'tis best,
To use my self in jest
Thus by feigned deaths to die.”

“And I don't care what it takes my friend
I will never go hungry, go hungry again
Oh, and I don't care what I have to pretend
I will never go hungry, go hungry again
And the phoenix she rises, she is sure to descend
She will never go hungry, go hungry again
And you're looking to me more and more like a godsend
We will never go hungry, go hungry again
And we owe each other nothing, there's no one left here to offend
We will never go hungry, go hungry again”

Courtney Love (1964) American punk singer-songwriter, musician, actress, and artist

"Never Go Hungry"
Song lyrics, Nobody's Daughter (2010)
