about

The American exceptionalism complex and how it relates to the gun crisis

lyrics

Well let’s be prodigies and then we’ll all get in tv and then we’ll make about a billion by the time we’re 23
oh I wanna be special
Like my momma said
If I’m not special, I might as well be dead

Well let’s go overseas and then we’ll all have odysseys and then the people will be awestruck by our personalities
Oh I wanna be a hero
Like my daddy said
If I’m not a hero, I might as well be dead

Oh, fly a little closer to the sun
Oh cry because we’ve already begun

Well let’s get ocd with an iq of 203 and then I’ll say that it was easy when I get my PhD oh I wanna be gifted
Like my teacher said
If I’m not gifted, well I might as well be dead

Well I’ll predict the economy
And everyone will listen to me
And I’ll become the shining standard of the corprotocracy
Oh I wanna be a winner
Like the Donald said
If I’m not a winner well I might as well be dead

Oh, fly a little close to the sun
Oh cry because we’ve already begun

Well I’ll be a celebrity on Snl and abc and then I’ll win the super bowl with a bullet in my knee
oh I wanna be perfect
Like the tv said
If I’m not perfect, well I might as well be dead

Well I’ll be a deity and you will have to worship me, because I’ll get on cnn when I go on a killing spree
Oh I wanna be a martyr
Like everybody said
If you’re not a martyr you might as well be dead

Oh put my brick on top of the wall
Oh I thought you said the wall would never fall

And maybe I’ll do none of that and this song won’t even rhyme
And that’s ok cause you can not hear me over society and I wanna be normal, like nobody ever said
If I am normal, I’m not afraid to die
