Lyrics

[Verse 1] Sit down and shut up for a second 'Cause you're confusing your freedom with a cold case of oppression 'Cause your neighbour's painted nails are not the reason for your shit life [Verse 2] Sit down and shut up for a second I know we're reading the same hymn sheet, but you're taking the wrong lesson If your barista's purple hair is the reason that you're stressing You should think twice [Pre-Chorus] Guess what? The world, she keeps on spinning, just not around you But I hear the birds, they keep on singing all about you [Chorus] And they go, "La, la, la Son, this ain't no way to live" They go, "La, la, la What you get is what you give" They go, "La, la, la Life is short, don't be a dick Son, this ain't no way to live Son, this ain't no way to livе" [Verse 3] Can't we all agree here for a sеcond That a kid looking for shelter should be safe and not feel threatened? All these things you choose to hate, well, I'm afraid they're not to blame for your shit life [Verse 4] Well you can love just who you love, and you can think just what you think And, if you open up your heart, you'll realise this simple thing That we're all just getting by And no one's tryna ruin your life You don't need to pick sides [Pre-Chorus] Well guess what? The world, she keeps on spinning, just not around you And I hear the birds, they keep on singing all about you [Chorus] And they go, "La, la, la Son, this ain't no way to live" They go, "La, la, la What you get is what you give" They go, "La, la, la Life is short, don't be a dick Son, this ain't no way to live Son, this ain't no way to live" [Instrumental Break] [Chorus] And they go, "La, la, la Son, this ain't no way to live" They go, "La, la, la What you get is what you give" They go, "La, la, la Life is short, don't be a dick Son, this ain't no way to live Son, this ain't no way to live" [Instrumental Break] [Outro] And they go, "La, la, la Son, this ain't no way to live" They go, "La, la, la Son, this ain't no way to live"
