Lyrics

[Verse 1] Boom I turn heads in the conference room They can tell that I'm a weirdo in a costume Like a cybernetic prostitute You wanna fuck the system, it'll cost you Thick round peg in a square hole Keep yourself in check or lose respect if you ain't careful There goes another one, on the straight and narrow Guess I really wouldn't care though if the issue was dinero Walk the fine line between presentablе and slippin' You could bend the rules and flip'еm Or accept the rules and live 'em Conventional dispositions fit to placate the parents Nonsensical split decisions simply make them embarrassed But I just can't turn it down, class nerd to the office clown Button up my shirt while getting dirty with the awesome crowd Bottomed out? That's a rock star you're talking 'bout Went to normie college but I'm dropping out [Chorus] No way I just want my own crazy epitaph It's okay I'm a phony so I'm breaking it in half I won't change Exterior falls away Gonna take it all the way I made a Better Call today [Verse 2] Never fit into your car cup holder Ever since I was nine, and now that I'm much older I've only grown to be bolder, got Doritos on my shoulder Every moment in the office, my soul gets a little colder All these projects over which I'm taking ownership Pff, whatever happened to showmanship? Let me talk out of my ass until their eyes fall out If you catch me running my mouth at a gathering I'm controlling it Freak of nature in a blazer and suit pants Wasn't made to be authoring papers or taking bootcamps I set a gas lamp to the manual Though valuable, it can't bring enlightenment like the truth can An academic by proxy Could've let it go, but I know what stopped me It's hard to commit to living your whole life offbeat Thought I better call it quits but I'm too damn cocky [Chorus] No way I just want my own crazy epitaph It's okay I'm a phony so I'm breaking it in half I won't change Exterior falls away Gonna take it all the way I made a Better Call today [Verse 3] When I'm all over your billboards On your great American highways Even if I'm still bored Well, at least I did it my way One day I'll play the Fillmore And maybe even Taipei Fulfill the purpose I was built for And say my final "Happy Friday" Can't help that I'm a spectacle Rock stars were never socially acceptable, ay Taught myself to be professional But I admit I'm never fully one dimensional, ay Caught up in the orbit of Neptune Brought me best friends and discord into my bedroom Following my calling excites me But will it all come back to bite me? [Chorus] No way I just want my own crazy epitaph It's okay I'm a phony so I'm breaking it in half I won't change Exterior falls away Gonna take it all the way I made a Better Call today
