Bridge lyrics and hook adapted from "Song of Myself" by Walt Whitman
lyrics
I wanna be small and loud, I wanna be soft and strong
I wanna be everything the patriarchy says is wrong
I wanna dress like a punk, I wanna dress like your mom
I look super hot in makeup, get it off. get it Off. Get It Off! GET IT OFFFFF!
Do I contradict myself? [x4]
I'm lightning in a bottle, I'm melting summer snow
I'm ancient roots to baby trees, I'm growing nice and slow
I'm so much sweeter than you could ever know
I'm a delicate mountain flower, plug me into the mains and watch me glow!
I just can't get my brain to focus on a single god damn thing
Then I don't eat for days 'cause I'm too busy hyperfocusing
I wanna be a rockstar but no-one's allowed to look at me
I wanna be your domme, so tie me up and make me scream!
Do I contradict myself? [x4]
Who has done their day's work?
Who wishes to walk with me?
Will you speak before I am gone?
Will you prove already too late?
I just can't get my brain to focus on a single goddamn thing
Then I don't eat for days 'cause I'm too busy hyperfocusing
I wanna be a rockstar but no-one's allowed to look at me
I wanna be your friend, but you people kill fags and queers.
I just can't get my brain to focus on a single goddamn thing
When the whole world is burning down to meet the deep-blue-rising-sea
Please stop the ride! I wanna get off this apocalypse machine
Are you fUCKing blind?! to the result of your hypocrisy?
