lyrics

Been at it
Already had my tarot read
Things are looking up indeed
That’s what my tarot said
Been pumpin' out pheromones and wearin red
Young Jerry Lawler
A king
They’re not aware of it
Forty dollars of show money
Less what they stole from me
Blow it all bowlin' they say I roll funny
Go find me a snow bunny
Ask if this cold world’s makin' her nose runny
She melted
I wear a cape that is velvet
Couldn’t see it she felt it
See it all like I’m Elvish
Move my hips like I’m Elvis
Never pitch I sell it
Couldn’t picture me jealous
Turn a fan to a zealot
They’re tunin in when I tell it

There were sixteen people at the gig
Sayin, "Oh my god what fun this is!"
Did it all did it right did it big
Yeah buddy we were lovin' it

New cards
New deck
New life
King of cups
He comes upright

Always
All days
All nights
Sing do wah do wah do wah ay

Highly gifted my jacket’s thrifted
Watch me get a pattern shifted
Just actin different
Livin' in my minutes
I’m catalytic
That’s why they love to jack the style
Like it’s on a Civic
I will never pull the strings like an oligarch
Do my dance at the club with the lonely hearts
Watchin' all these little men try and be Bonaparte's
Then make the rest of us deal with their broken parts, ugh
Despite evil I like people
Put your hands in the air if your bipedal
Yeah If life is a film gimme five sequels
Tryna pull my thread through the plot like a fine needle
All of these lines equal proof that I live alone
Got the benefit of time to deliver flows
Eatin' creamy peanut butter
Buddy I lick the bowl
It brings my soul body into the physical

New cards
New deck
New life
King of cups
He comes upright

Always
All days
All nights
Sing do wah do wah do wah ay
