I just read a note
To get the sympathy vote
Apology by rote
To get the sympathy vote
I took a dis too far
Likability dropped
This must be stopped
I need your sympathy

Cut down out -----
I can't stop it's human nature
I run, run down every little thing you say
'Til I get my way

I went and stole a quote
To get a sympathy quote
'It was all she wrote'
To get the sympathy vote
We're all picking tribes
With our sympathetic vibes
A shield for the man
Because we can

Cut down out -----
I can't stop it's human nature
I run, run down every little thing you say
'Til I get my way

I can't settle
'Til I prove my mettle
Then the cool kids medal in making cracks

I can't settle
'Til I prove my mettle
Then the cool kids medal in stabbing backs

I know you must've misunderstood what I said

Look at the contracts

There's only 3 things in life with any certainty
Number one is death
Number two is taxes
Number three is professional jealousy

Oh, I think I'm running low on excuses
I need some better excuses, please

Back of the boat
To win the sympathy vote
The words catch in my throat
I think it's working!

Cut down out -----
I can't stop it's human nature
I run, run down every little thing you say
'Til I get my way

I can't settle
'Til I prove my mettle
Then the cool kids medal in making cracks

I can't settle
'Til I prove my mettle
Then the cool kids medal in stabbing backs
