First off
I-i'll refuse
To let you get to me
Now secondly
I-i'm amused
At your desperation, frankly

Oh, man, in eager times
It's your ego and my hide, and you slither, slide

You can't eat what you can't catch
You just stare, you're such a cold fish
You might think that you have won
But we've only just begun
And I'll always be a step ahead
Yeah

And furthermore
What, now we're keeping score?
And lastly, it must get taxing
Trying to surpass me
Your wings get waxy

Hot damn, I do what I can
I focus on the things, in life, I like
And I let it slide

You can't eat what you can't catch
You just stare, you're such a Cold Fish
You might think that you have won
But we've only just begun
And I'll always be a step ahead
Yeah!
You can't rely on what you don't have
You're all style and no substance
Well, you got it backwards
And you don't care who you hurt
You're a poser and a problem

We are born and raised in a heartbeat
If I slowed it down, would you stick with me?
And I hitch my ride into the rising sun

I thank God that I've been allowed
To get up and do something with my life
And I'm not backing down
No-oh!

You can't eat what you can't catch
You just stare, you're such a cold fish
You might think that you have won
But we've only just begun
And I'll always be a step ahead
Hyah!
You can't rely on what you don't have
You're all style and no substance
Well, you got it backwards
And you don't care who you hurt
You're a poser and a problem

I said it, I said it
So sorry to hear it
Oh, I am
Oh whoa, oh whoa
Oh whoa, oh whoa
Oh whoa, oh whoa
Hey-ah
Oh whoa, oh whoa
Oh whoa, oh whoa
Oh whoa, oh whoa (Whoo!)

You might think that you have won
But we've only just begun
And I'll always be a step ahead
