Okay alright, uh no
This one, this one, this one

Who look at your face, from more than one angle
Can cut you from their bloated budgets
Like sharpened knives through chicken mcnuggets

Now heads of state, who ride and wrangle
Who look at your face, from more than one angle
Can cut you from their bloated budgets
Like sharpened knives through chicken mcnuggets

Will eat your children and steal your thunder
While heavy torsos that heave and hurl
Will crunch like nuts in the mouth of squirrels

Now, simple feet that flicker like fire
And burn like candles in smoky spires
Do more to turn, my joy to sadness
Than somber thoughts of burning planets

And burn like candles in smoky spires
Do more to turn, my joy to sadness
Than somber thoughts of burning planets

I don't wanna hear it
That's right (shut the f*ck)
Oh, okay I don't wanna (shut the f*ck)

Hey, ho, ya (shut the f*ck)
I don't wanna
I don't wanna
Ooh
Yeah, one two one two one
