People looking at you
Cuz they wanna see themself
Listening to advice
Is gonna ruin your mental health
Don’t let nobody tell ya
Who you’re sposed to be
Try to please the people
And you’ll never be free
Ain’t no one alive
To tell ya what you’re all about
Listening to advice
Is gonna turn you inside out
Don’t let nobody tell ya
Who you’re sposed to be
Try to please the people
And you’ll never be free
You’re the only person
Inside you from the start
You’re the only one
Who knows what’s living in your heart
Don’t let nobody tell ya
Who you’re sposed to be
Try to please the people
And you’ll never be free

Nothin’ from nothin’ leaves nothin’
—Billy Preston
There ain’t a woman who can see
All the love inside of me
Stupid two-bit loser town
Bitches try to bring me down
I need a woman sweet and pure
I’ll find my truth inside of her
I spend my cash and act a clown
Bitches try to bring me down
A million things that I could be
If only she believed in me
I could drink until I drown
Bitches try to bring me down

She burned my possessions
She poisoned my mule
She shredded my flat screen
And threw it in the pool
I had to find out
for myself
I wouldn’t believe
nobody else
She’s runnin all around
With a bunch of new men
My boss and my brother
And five of my friends
I had to find out
for myself
it wrecked my mind
and ruined my health
She emptied my treasury
She cashed in my chips
She bought herself rubies
And had a nice trip
I had to find out
for myself
she really helped me
share the wealth
All of my buddies
Been saying for years
But I was too timid
To face down my fears
I had to find out
for myself
I wouldn’t believe
nobody else

The Russians broke in
When I was outta town
Drank all my whiskey
And burned the place down
The Russians ate my homework
And Putin hacked my phone
My girlfriend saw his dick pic
And now I’m all alone
My manager’s a Russian
He’s an undercover Tsar
Always hacking at my server
And eating caviar
Down in every basement
Under every bed
There’s a sneaky Russian agent
They know everything you said
Call the Justice League
And summon Chuck Norris
Cuz we’re under assault
From Natasha and Boris

Your foreman is an asshole
He treats you like a rat
You take your anger home
And blame it on your cat
Feelings aren’t smart
They’re not even sane
Like a ping pong ball
Bouncing in your brain
Voice inside you saying
Your folks are always right
So you must’ve deserved it
When they beat you every night
Thoughts get jumbled
And feelings tangle up
Like a mess of rusty razors
Tearing at your gut
