lyrics

This dickhead boasted that he is happy.
He said it is a choice,
And if you're special, you can make it.
I'm not very fond of cherries.
I don't like how they taste,
But I wish I liked them because they look good,
But I don't like them.
They're my least favorite food.

But thorns aren't to be ignored.

I used to be able to do pull-ups,
But I can't anymore
Because I lack in the upper-body strength,
And I'm so spiteful that I only have brains.

But thorns aren't to be ignored.

The most sound structures stand on three legs.
The fourth would make it wobble,
And I don't wobble.
I won't wobble,
No, I won't wobble,
And you won't see me do it,
Because I won't do it,
Cause I won't be sitting down.
I'll leave,
I'll die.
