there's a guy in a "Shit Happens" t-shirt, crying
all is well again in a world still dying
looking for your dreams? catch a fist to the face
wanna show emotion? you're a bitch, get replaced
when I was a youngun I was something to be feared
now with my depression I'm a hunk, with a beard
black and white, a skunk, when I'm drunk I get weird
wanna die like punk, Kerplunk! souvenir
ready to get back to the version that I was
when I didn't give a fuck to be funny but because...
there's a whole world of pressure, pressured to be loved
you can't go it on your own, no you gotta be like us
fuck you motherfuckers, I don't need to do a thing
ain't nobody got it right, ain't nobody know a thing
I'm here to coast along, see what tomorrow brings
until whichever body-shamed lady fucking sings
you wanna work that overtime and save for when you're old
I just wanna fuck around and ignore what I've been told
you can stay the beaten path, hey ya never know
but I got a never-ending gif of dicks you can blow
bring it on down, the rulers and their backers
the few have the most, they sell it to us backwards
which brought us where? figure out the factors
bitch are you scared? we're not prepared
you wanna work a shitty job to purchase things you'll never need
and consume all the shitty food to clog up all them arteries
and part of me is thinking, you never really tried to live
and there you go, fucking, to pass this to another kid
sometimes I wanna be a friend, and then maybe a savior
but in the bitter end, say holler at me later
who the fuck was I? do I wanna die?
maybe just to prove that there's no-one in the sky
jokes on me, now I'm a fucking pilot
tripping through the clouds with the swagger of a pirate
(yard harr harr) middle finger for your diet
break a Starbucks window in heaven, start a riot
fuck your couch, I hide my boxing skills like a joey in a pouch
back against the wall, stay relaxed with a slouch
you are green, you are shit, Oscar the Grouch
your WCW gets that tea from the crouch
you don't have the nuts for them deez that you vouch
and even if you got em you gonna need to be out
your mouth is steady ripping through the seams of your clout
your shell is transparent and your glare is a pout
see me when you wanna know what happens next
I feel like when that day comes you'll leave perplexed
you can run that damn mouth of yours, won't cash checks
I can see that blank stare and from your mouth, your breath
but don't breath easy, it'll catch up to ya
death is sneaky shit, it goes surprise and booya
you could leave on bad terms, we won't care we knew ya
pour liquor on your grave, part mourn part screw ya
a legacy of anger doesn't suit me well
gets a little cozy in that personal hell
try to make things better, perfect the spell
instead I pull that trigger on myself to catch the shell
and it's just as well, repetition and circles
blue lives don't matter when Carl Winslows to Urkels
spent too many years upside-down like a turtle
to concentrate on that there race, pick up and throw every hurdle

get money, punch nazis
pet kittens, name your weiner dogs Schatzi
burn down your local Applebee's (burn it down)
burn your local Applebee's
cause everybody sucks
you know you'd think I'd learn my fuckin' lesson
push the people to the side who left a shitty ass impression
and most the people here in question
tend to be the type believing anything at the mere suggestion
the type recycling jokes at the circle jerk
the type that suggest that you're gay for wearing purple shirts
that friend of a friend, that dude you know from work
that need to fuck themselves or at least get the Hershey squirts
why you gotta get up in my face?
seems I might have struck a nerve with the topic of race
turned around yelling at a Will and a Grace
about Muslim this or that and how this isn't their place
the old U.S. of A is ours dumb-dumb
matters that you're human, doesn't matter where you come from
how the hell you even make this a conundrum
says a bit about your person, even more bout where you come from
no need to sugarcoat, I truly despise you
for most of your life, seems to me you've been lied to
could make this better if you give it a try dude
but naw, you're a man, ain't no pussy inside you
you little bitch, we could never be friends
being in your presence is a means to an end
I can't justify that, so I'll have to pretend
that I murdered you already, so this headache can end
I'd rather kick it with Leia than Toadstool
I hate people that do what they're supposed to
ain't no reason, don't believe what they told you
cause most people fucking suck, but you're cool
I'd rather kick it with Leia than Toadstool
I hate people that do what they're supposed to
ain't no reason, don't believe what they sold you
cause most people fucking suck but you're cool
I need somebody that'll be by my side
that isn't fucking toxic, ride to the die
thought I might have had that, not gonna lie
but they bit my fuckin' hand while I was sharing my pie
negativity, ain't it a bitch?
when you need a thousand problems to scratch on that itch
when you have what you want but you don't let it fit
and so you take a good person and you turn them to shit, huh?
I'd rather kick it with Leia than Toadstool
I hate people that do what they're supposed to
ain't no reason, don't believe what they told you
cause most people fucking suck, but you're cool
I'd rather kick it with Leia than Toadstool
I hate people that do what they're supposed to
ain't no reason, don't believe what they sold you
cause most people fucking suck but you're cool

it goes fuck it all, I'll focus on my paper like I'm Dunder Miff
never looking in the rearview, never wonder if
make the most of rain, straight face when the thunder hit
if they aren't showing you respect, fuckin plunder it
(done with it) people treating people like disposables
time to burn some bridges then tear down some totem poles
every word you say behind a back stays quotable
show your true colors, wonder why I'm not sociable
(overload) seen enough patterns now it's obvious
if you stay bragging bout your positives, you're probably shit
keep your Doctor Oz wisdom and your fucking Molly hits
cuddle up to karma but you better bring a dolly with
(ollie bitch!) turning obstacles into a spectacle
throwing middle fingers high but try to stay respectable
showing all your issues and you keep em like collectibles
time to turn my back and leave you hanging like some testicles
I spit a lot of venom cause I feel like I've been cornered
and taking down a life often feels like moving forward
only way is up with my expectations lowered
that's a good heads up like a snake into a mower
thought about some shit while high and now you think you're Socrates
talk a lot of shit but never practice your philosophies
not a contradiction, just a product of hypocrisy
my heart is filled with heavy shit, head is filled with oddities
(apologies) none were given out, nor were fucks again
only thing left to choose is which hole you should stuff it in
take a pill, take 100 more because you're sufferin' (succotash)
button mash to work through all the buffering
(dun da dun) hero in a world filled with cowards
we're classifying honesty as a super power
since you're easily impressed by the fools in the tower
I would bet you chuckle at the term "fake news" for hours
burn it all! I wanna see the ashes of our past fly
you know I always gave a shit, I've always been an ass guy
every time I'm gonna trust, every try's my last try
keep myself alert but I'm not dumb enough to ask why
(that's fly) sure it is, I'm dope at all that life stuff
every weapon's worth a damn when you choose the right buff
don't need a slow motion walk, face it when it lights up
peace out, goodbye, pretend you're dead, here's your write up
