Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Um, excuse me mister
But can you please turn down the lights
I don' really like all these cameras, man
And this shit just don't feel right (Yeah)
And I don' really wanna be rude to you, sir
But fuck you mean, I can't wear my hat in here?
And you got me fucked up, if you think I care, ****
[Verse 2]
Yeah
I hope you little **** is listening
Them Golf Boys is in this bitch like an infant
The blind **** used to make fun of my vision
And now I'm payin' mortgage and they stuck with tuition (Yeah)
So special the teacher asked if I was autistic (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
And now I'm making plates, you just washing the dishes (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
So if you don't mind, get the fuck out of my kitchen (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
But keep your ego here so I can butt fuck your opinion (Yeah)
[Verse 3]
But in the meantime brainwashing millions of minions
Leader of the new school
And you will never catch me in none of their fucking shin-digs
I hope you fucking **** is angry, pissed, and offended
In search of did more for me than Illmatic
That's when I realized we ain't cut from the same fabric
I made my own shit, you went out and bought yours
Man, I got too much drive, motherfucker, I hate traffic
[Verse 4]
La-di-da-di
I'm going harder than coming out the closet to conservative Christian fathers
When it's a lot at stake, carne asada but
Let's be honest, I'm really morphing
Named the album Cherry Bomb because Greatest Hits sounded boring
[Verse 5]
I don't like to follow the rules, she said that I must
I don't have any armpits
She wanted to talk to who's in charge of this golf shit
I said "Howdy do? How are you? I'm the sergeant"
And who I are isn't really important
My heart is as dark as a window with car tint
So hop in with your friends yellin' out ''Unpark it''
And I'll do donuts until the fat one is carsick
It's young T
[Refrain]
Yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
[Chorus]
I don't like to follow the rules (Oh)
And that's just who I am (Oh)
I hope you understand (Oh)
Check, check it out
And I don't really think y'all cool (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
So give yourself a hand (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
No, no, give yourself a hand
[Bridge]
Yeah
Better pose for that camera
You better pose, boy you better pose
And it's your life ****, I suppose
For the lights, for the camera, and the action
[Bridge]
Now you're face is meltin'
From the flash and the big ol' lights
****, you ask for this life, yeah
[Refrain]
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah
[Verse 6]
Welcome to deathcamp (Yeah alright)
Yeah, welcome to deathcamp (Better feel alright)
Yeah, welcome to deathcamp (Better feel alright)
[Verse 7]
Kissing on my bean bag (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
With your lips half on my tongue (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
And I'm finna moonwalk through your hair (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
For the lights, and the camera, and the action
[Verse 8]
This is fun I can tell (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
But I don't know if you'll handle it well (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
But um, welcome to hell camp (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
Lights, and the camera, and the action
[Verse 9]
You should be mine in a way tonight
For the lights, and the camera, and the action
