lyrics
You wanna dance and be undone
I like the way you move
You wanna scream and shoot your gun
I can't believe it now you're sweatin them eagles
Soaring like an albatross
I'll make the money run
I'll make a fortune off your loss
But it's all for that rockstar feeling
Helll yeah I hear ya
Want reparations but it's far far away
Oooh yeah I see ya
Just let me steal your pedestal
I wanna give you a montage
And throw your life away
This whole month you're my all star kid
But come July you'll be no more than filler
I got your face on my product
Your such a selling point
But I won't buy in on your cause
Cause to be frank it's just bad for business
I might as well warn ya
You better keep your eyes on the road
Uncle Sam said he ain't gonna keep ya
You're the abstract and tradition runs deep
So we'll give you a moment but you better get back on the bleachers
Cause we're no white caps but we'll run your shit to the ground
So better keep your shit tight
And realign with the image
There'll be no expression today
Is it better to be shut tight
Or is it better to blow composure
Is it it better to be shut tight
is it better no I don't know whats better
I like the way you move
You wanna scream and shoot your gun
I can't believe it now you're sweatin them eagles
Soaring like an albatross
I'll make the money run
I'll make a fortune off your loss
But it's all for that rockstar feeling
Helll yeah I hear ya
Want reparations but it's far far away
Oooh yeah I see ya
Just let me steal your pedestal
I wanna give you a montage
And throw your life away
This whole month you're my all star kid
But come July you'll be no more than filler
I got your face on my product
Your such a selling point
But I won't buy in on your cause
Cause to be frank it's just bad for business
I might as well warn ya
You better keep your eyes on the road
Uncle Sam said he ain't gonna keep ya
You're the abstract and tradition runs deep
So we'll give you a moment but you better get back on the bleachers
Cause we're no white caps but we'll run your shit to the ground
So better keep your shit tight
And realign with the image
There'll be no expression today
Is it better to be shut tight
Or is it better to blow composure
Is it it better to be shut tight
is it better no I don't know whats better
