This Ain’t a Scene, It’s an Arms Race

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I am an arms dealer, fitting you with Weapons in the form of words And don't really care which side wins Long as the room keeps singing, that's just the business I'm in [Pre-Chorus] This ain't a scene, it's a goddamn arms race This ain't a scene, it's a goddamn arms race This ain't a scene, it's a goddamn arms race I'm not a shoulder to cry on, but I digress [Chorus] I'm a leading man And the lies I weave are oh so intricate (Do-do-do-do-do) Oh so intricate, yeah (Do-do-do-do-do-do) I'm a leading man And the lies I weave are oh so intricate (Do-do-do-do-do) Oh so intricate, yeah (Do-do-do-do-do-do) [Verse 2] I wrote the gospel on giving up (You're looking pretty sinking) But the real bombshells have already sunk (Prima donnas of the gutter) At night, we're painting your trash gold while you sleep Crashing not like hips or cars, no, more like p-p-p-parties [Pre-Chorus] This ain't a scene, it's a goddamn arms race This ain't a scene, it's a goddamn arms race This ain't a scene, it's a goddamn arms race Bandwagon's full, please catch another [Chorus] I'm a leading man And the lies I weave are oh so intricate (Do-do-do-do-do) Oh so intricate, yeah (Do-do-do-do-do-do) I'm a leading man And the lies I weave are oh so intricate (Do-do-do-do-do) Oh so intricate, yeah (Do-do-do-do-do-do) [Post-Chorus] Woah-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh (Do-do-do-do-do) Whoo [Guitar Solo] [Bridge] All the boys who the dance floor didn't love And all the girls whose lips couldn't move fast enough Sing until your lungs give out [Pre-Chorus] This ain't a scene, it's a goddamn arms race This ain't a scene, it's a goddamn arms race (Now you) This ain't a scene, it's a goddamn arms race (Wear out the groove) This ain't a scene, it's a goddamn arms race (Sing out loud) This ain't a scene, it's a goddamn arms race (Oh, oh) This ain't a scene, it's a goddamn arms race [Chorus] I'm a leading man And the lies I weave are oh so intricate (Do-do-do-do-do) Oh so intricate, yeah (Do-do-do-do-do-do) I'm a leading man And the lies I weave are oh so intricate (Do-do-do-do-do) Oh so intricate (Do-do-do-do-do-do)
