Lyrics

[Verse 1]
(Hahaha, it's all downhill from here, alright)
[Verse 2]
Little boy says, "I'll be in love with my fits"
Little boy says, "I'll be in love with my punches"
Little boy says, "What should I do with my hands, mom?"
Little boy is told not to do anything wrong
[Verse 3]
When I die I'll be taken to the constellations
Have a drink, relax, there'll be some introductions
This is Cassiopeia, this is Orion
This is Cindy and this is Nathan
That's Chrissy and the other Nathan
[Verse 4]
"I know that it's a lot to remember," says mother
"I know that it's a lot to remember," says father
"I know that it's a lot to remember," says mother
"I know that it's a lot to remember," says father
[Verse 5]
I speak these words in utter isolation
I drive the car in a line from star to stardom
Little boy says, "I'll touch the heart of the nation"
Little boy says, "I'll punch the heart of everyone"
[Verse 6]
When I die I'll be taken to the constellations
Have a drink, relax, there'll be some introductions
This is Cassiopeia, this is Orion
This is Cindy and this is Nathan
I just met him, no, that's the other Nathan
[Verse 7]
"I know that it's a lot to remember," says mother
"I know that it's a lot to remember," says father
"I know that it's a lot to remember," says mother
"I know that it's a lot to remember," says someone
[Verse 8]
You won't see who you want to see there
No one will want to be in your band
You'll have to learn how to make it on your own
Spend a little time with your own hand
[Verse 9]
Little boy says, "I'll be in love with my fists"
[Verse 10]
And we're never gonna, never gonna get a job
And we're never gonna, never gonna get a job
And we're never gonna, never gonna get a job
And we're never gonna, never gonna get a job
[Verse 11]
Fuck off teens
