lyrics

Let’s show ‘em what we’ve got to lose
Tell me what you’ve got to prove
Anything they can do we can do better
We can give ‘em the old one two
Computer, computer show me where it’s at
I need some positive contact
I want faster planes, hotter chicks
Smaller brains, and bigger dicks
You swallow everything I can remember
I haven’t seen that face since last December
I am your poltergeist, you’re my pretender
The future’s a place you’ll never survive
So clear me out while you’re still alive
Do it like this, do it like that, try mine
They’ve even got it up in the skyline
A bunch of kids still flip their lids
Never knowing what the hell they’re motivation is
Always in a hurry, always in a rush
I liked you better when you’re airbrushed
I bought her flowers, but she prefers cobras
And I’m only getting older (come on)
The fittest girls
They do what fits
People getting ruthless with their carrots and sticks
And I can only hope to sit back and watch it on my own
Like the biggest kids become the biggest problems
We put them up for adoption
And I can only hope they’re dying all alone
I bought her cobras, but she prefers vipers
I can never delight her
Some day she’s gonna bring me to my knees
I’ll be the king, you’ll be my fool
Got the world on a string and the stars on a spool
‘Till they all run out and there’s no one left but me
