lyrics

I’m a rocket
I’ll attack it
I’m the greasy fingers tryna open up your duck sauce packet
I’m the package that you’re waiting for so track it
Not a complex code so crack it
Luck’s run so cold you’ll need to grab a jacket
I’ve got some time so let’s unpack it

Jack of few trades
Master of fewer
Mind in the gutter
Heart in the sewer
If you’ve got a taste for it
I’ll make a case for it
Slow down the pace for it
I’ve got the face for it
Baggage like John Frum
It’s the dark before dawn
Burnt so bad that I stick to Teflon

Your sweet is sweeter
Sugar-coated every day
And this is just theater
But I watch it anyway
Alter your altar
And fix your ‘fix
‘Cause if and when you falter
I’ll be right there in the mix

Those boots go with those pants
Like you and I go with romance
Which is to say not at all
But say it with that Southern drawl

Stack it up just to watch it fall
All the mirrors without the hall
Buried the lede down in the crawl
I’d burn it down but it’s not my call

I was hiding, you were seeking
And confiding, I was leaking
You were biding, I was sneaking
And eliding, always peaking
Maybe sliding with some freaking
And your chiding needs some tweaking

This whole posturing is just a fad
Losing something that we never had
At this point, I can’t even be mad
It’s too late to be good... so let’s be bad

Your sweet is sweeter
Sugar-coated every day
And this is just theater
But I watch it anyway
Alter your altar
And fix your ‘fix
‘Cause if and when you falter
I’ll be right there in the mix

Your sweet is sweeter
And this is just theater
Alter your altar
‘Cause if and when you falter
I’ll be right there in the mix
