lyrics

I’m boring and I’m shallow, ain’t got nothing to say

Don’t care about your money, or your kick-ass P.A.

I’m hungry as fuck for the taste of something stronger

Don’t give a shit if it takes a little longer.

I took ten whole years to get going

Will I take ten more? There’s no knowing

All I got’s my wicked sense of the abstract

Fuck with me, I’m gonna Fuck right back.


Yeah, I wanna kick out the jams

I wanna kick your ass at everything

Yeah, I wanna win this one so bad

And be the best thing you ever had.


I’m stupid and I’m ugly, ain’t nothin’ bout me

I don’t even care that you’re happy without me

I’m tired as fuck of all the condescention

Don’t give a shit about your “good intentions”.

You took too many years for my liking

Who knows why? You’re not particularly striking

All I got’s my ability to survive this

Fuck with me, I’m not gonna abide it.


Yeah, I wanna kick out the jams

I wanna kick your ass at everything

Yeah, I wanna win this one so bad

And be the best thing you never had.


I’m not averse to making a scene these days

I’m not entirely cut off from my wicked ways

Not trying to make a point to you so much as me

I wasted too much time on you despite my dreams.


Yeah, I wanna kick out the jams

I wanna kick your ass at everything

Yeah, I wanna win this one so bad

And be the best thing you’ll never have

I’ll be the best thing you’ll never have

I already am.
