about

This song is about bedroom musicians with over-inflated egos.
Cette chanson parle des musiciens de chambre aux égos surdimensionnés.

lyrics

Why don't you shove all your random samples
And eat the chip on your shoulder too
Oh and stick your bedroom ego shows
Right up your bum
I don't need 'em save 'em
For your chums
For your chums
For your chums
Hey ho ho hum
Hey ho ho hum
Hey ho ho hum
Hey ho ho hum

None of this is about music
It's all your headtrip isn't it
You're far too immature to admit it
For fear that your halo might slip
But your halo has slipped
So wipe that smug look off your face
'Cause there are horns
Growin' in your halo's place
Yes there are horns
Growin' in your halo's place
So

Why don't you shove all your random samples
And eat the chip on your shoulder too
Oh and stick your bedroom ego shows
Right up your bum
I don't need 'em save 'em
For your chums
For your chums
For your chums
Hey ho ho hum
Hey ho ho hum
Hey ho ho hum
Hey ho ho hum


Labellin' others' suggestions pointless
You have a dismissive attitude
Your determination to impress
Doesn't justify being rude
And you are just plain rude
And way way too sure of yourself
Let's face facts young dude
You constantly overrate yourself
Oh yes you do
You constantly overrate yourself
So

Why don't you shove all your random samples
And eat the chip on your shoulder too
Oh and stick your bedroom ego shows
Right up your bum
I don't need 'em save 'em
For your chums
For your chums
For your chums
Hey ho ho hum
Hey ho ho hum
Hey ho ho hum
Hey ho ho hum
