Lyrics
I got a grin so wide
With teeth so pearly white
You'd never even know
What I gave up just to
Sow these seeds
Of unforeseen misery
And when the day turns night
And all the dogs do fight
Over these scraps left
Just outside my door
It's a sight to see
In all its resplendency
When the world's gone to rot
I'll still be the most fair of them all
'Cause if push comes to shove I'll just
Stack you to break my own fall
Now why would you stop all this fun?
I just want to stay number one
And if some must lose to prop me up
Well, that's just fine
And when they cry out as they drown
I'll have packed all my bags to leave town
With a note left in gold leaf that sighs
"Farewell, 'cause I got mine."
Now don't you get ideas
Or move to end these fears
'Cause soon you'd realize
Just how much pain someone like
Me can take
And bounce back fully unscathed
But should these words fall on deaf ears
And if your threats draw far too near
We've got a remedy
Watch and see
All of your hopes and dreams
Amount to a mere plaything
Between what's right and what's right here
I'll always choose for me, my dear
Leave it to grifters
And full-fledged bullshitters
It breaks my heart
But that's just the way these things go
Now why would you stop all this fun?
I just want to stay number one
And if some must lose to prop me up
Well, that's just fine
And when they cry out as they drown
I'll have packed all my bags to leave town
With a note left in gold leaf that cries
"Well, I got mine."
In my dreams I'm all
Of the things I want to be
Shaping all realities
One at a time
In this world I'm the
King of all that I can see
Even as the walls close in on me
Oh, but on those sleepless nights
The twists and turns
The screams and burns
Oh, but on those sleepless nights
They wait for me
So patiently
Now why would you stop all this fun?
I just want to stay number one
And if some must lose to prop me up
Well, that's just fine
And when they cry out as they drown
I'll have packed all my bags to leave town
With a note left in gold leaf that cries
"Well, I got mine."
In my dreams I'm all
Of the things I want to be
Shaping all realities
One at a time
In this world I'm the
King of all that I can see
Even if the fire consumes me
