Lyrics
Hey
There’s no rules today
You steal instead of borrow
You take all the shapes that I make
And you think
That you thought
All the thoughts
That I thought you
Don’t you?
Mutilation’s the most
Sincere form of flattery
If you want to be me
Then stand in line like the rest
Now, do you know what I mean?
The young get less bolder
The legends get older
But I stay the same
As long as you have less to say
Do you think that I wouldn’t say this?
You know that I play this better than you
Fuck you
Fuck you
Fuck you
And fuck you too
Do you really think that I wouldn’t say this?
You know that I play this better than you
Rebels without applause
I sell my shadow to those who are standing in it
They think that I would bitch about them
Thinking they are the shit
When they can’t even step in it
The young get less bolder
The legends get older
But I stay the same
As long as you have less to say
Do you think that I wouldn’t say this?
You know that I play this better than you
Fuck you
Fuck you
Fuck you
Fuck you
And fuck you too
The young get less bolder
The legends get older
But I stay the same
As long as you have less to say
Do you think that I wouldn’t say this?
You know that I play this better than you
Fuck you
Fuck you
Fuck you
And
Fuck you too
Do you really think that I wouldn’t say this?
You know that I play this better than you
