Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I'm a dumb teen boy, I eat sticks and rocks and mud
I don't care about the government and I really need a hug
I feel stupid and ugly, pretend it doesn't bother me
I'm not very strong, but I'll fuck you up if you're mean to bugs
[Verse 2]
It's gettin' cold down here underneath the weather
I skipped class to sit with you, I really like your spotty sweater
If ladybugs are girls, how do you make kids together?
What's it like in a female world? I bet it's just so much better
[Verse 3]
I just turned fourteen
And I think this year I'm gonna be mean
[Verse 4]
Don't mess with me, I'm a big boy now and I'm very scary
I punch my walls, stay out at night and I do karate
Don't message me 'cause I won't reply, I wanna make you cry
Ain't that how it's supposed to be? Though it isn't me
Boys will be bugs, right?
Boys will be bugs, right?
[Verse 5]
I'm a dumb teen boy, all I wanna do is quit
My mum told me that she's worried and I couldn't give a shit
I have friends who understand me, their names are Spider, Beetle, Bee
They don't say much, but they have always listened to me
[Verse 6]
The other boys at school think it's cool to hate your parents
But they're lyin' all the time, the bugs advised that I should let 'em
And if you wanna cry, make sure that they never see it
Or even better yet, block it out and never feel it
[Verse 7]
I just turned 14
And I think I know everything
[Verse 8]
Don't mess with me, I'm a big boy now and I'm very scary
I punch my walls, stay out at night and I do karate
Don't message me 'cause I won't reply, I wanna make you cry
Ain't that how it's supposed to be? Though it isn't me
Boys will be bugs, right?
Boys will be bugs, right?
[Verse 9]
Just turned fourteen
And I think this year, I'm gonna be mean
Just turned fourteen
And I think I know everything
Just turned fourteen
And I think this year, I'm gonna be mean
Just turned fourteen
And I think the world revolves around me
[Verse 10]
Don't mess with me, I'm a big boy now and I'm very scary
I punch my walls, stay out at night and I do karate
Don't message me 'cause I won't reply, I wanna make you cry
Ain't that how it's supposed to be? Though it isn't me
Boys will be bugs, right?
[Verse 11]
Don't mess with me, I'm a big boy now and I'm very scary
I punch my walls, stay out at night and I do karate
Don't message me 'cause I won't reply, I wanna make you cry
Ain't that how it's supposed to be? Though it isn't me
Boys will be bugs, right?
[Verse 12]
Don't mess with me, I'm a big boy now and I'm very scary
I punch my walls, stay out at night and I do karate
Don't message me 'cause I won't reply, I wanna make you cry
Ain't that how it's supposed to be? Though it isn't me...
