I speak fast and I'm not gonna repeat myself, no
So listen carefully to every word I say
"I'm the only one who's gonna get away with making excuses today
You're appealing to emotions that I simply do not have"
Blackmailed myself
(Cause I ain't got)
Cause I ain't got anyone else
"This is a stick up
Give us all your inspiration"
I've got the red carpet blues baby
"So put your hands in the air and don't make a sound
But don't get the wrong idea
We're going to shoot you
We're going to shoot you
And there's nothing in your head or pocket, throat or wallet
That could change just how this goes
No
We're going to shoot you
We're going to shoot you"
When I said that I'd return to you I meant it more like a relapse
Now and again I think "his and her's"
"For better or worse"
But the only ring I want buried with me are the ones around my eyes
"You're appealing to emotions that I simply do not have"
I've got the red carpet blues baby
"So put your hands in the air and don't make a sound
But don't get the wrong idea
We're going to shoot you
We're going to shoot you
And there's nothing in your head or pocket, throat or wallet
That could change just how this goes"
And everyone shakes to the beat with a barrel down their throat
But don't get the wrong idea
We're going to shoot you
We're going to shoot you
