Get Up
Watching them move their mouths
The words are trickling out
Those words are dripping down
Out of some dirty looking spouts
Cross the table and onto my lap
Flowing out of those unchecked taps
Waiting for a smile to crack
Check this bullshit piled on my lap!
Your face all soft and shining
Floating behind them all
Your lips don’t need to move
No need to speak at all.
They say I’m a loser, and
They say I’m gonna lose it, and
They say I’m a loser, and
They say I’m gonna lose it, and
Well, I’ve got news for ya
I’m as cool as a cucumber
I’m as cool as a cucumber
Cucumber.
And they respect me less than they trust me
All they want is to see me crawl
Well here are the reasons baby
Why I’m still here at all...
One, they don’t deserve me,
One, but baby you do
Two, they don’t deserve me,
Two, but baby you do
Three, they don’t deserve me,
Three, but baby you do
Four, they don’t deserve me,
Four, but baby you do
Five, they don’t deserve me,
Five, but baby you do
Six, they don’t deserve me,
Six, but baby you do

Approach Me Like A Lion

Approach me like a lion
No open eye
Everything is timing
Don’t waste your time.
Forgive me for not lying
I’m not that bad.
You know I make me happy
You make you sad.
At last my beauty (his beauty)
Well, it shall be adored.
(How good to)
How good to feel good.
(Bravo, he’s winning)
I’m winning
And I bow with ease.
(Bravo, he’s hinging)
I’m bowing,
Bow in a billion screens.
