NAPOLEON DYNAMITE Songtext
von 5LOKO

Back in high school, I was eating the slop
Sippin′ milk and a cart, didn't know how to talk
Out of high school, tryna figure myself
Changes feeling disrupt, life got ended abrupt
Now I′m at school, almost ending it now
Didn't learn nothing while, college life didn't "wow"
After out of school, we got mortgage and pills
Taxes ain′t really thrill, I′m just doing what kills, yeah
Got no bed up to distance myself
Can't accumulate wealth
Can there be something else? (Ah!) That they saying that I′m slept on
Got dreams I can rest on
The label can just step on
(That's what I′m talking about!)
So I just eat it up like Salt Bae
And covered it with All-State
The company just bought me
(What do you mean by that?)
But I'm too self aware, contracts made to go scare
Really don′t have a care, childhood of affairs

I'm a child of myself, I'm a child of the culture
I want a picture of my face hanging on your wall
I been lying to myself just to make a deposit, but
Who knew being alone could be so hard?


Yeah, said it′s the same thing, everyday
Waking up, play the fool
Couple jokes to cope, the biggest joke is on you, oh
I never thought you would be a familiar
If I′m worth a milli, you gotta be worth a trillion
When it get too chilly out, I let all my feelings out
If I was the man as a kid, I'm something different now
We got spring summer fall hits, break a brother jaw hits
They listen in awe, we made ′em jump off the wall
Made 'em look out the windows, mind open, eyes closed
Eyes closed, heart full, tank empty, cart full
They say I′m a handful, feeling way too artful
Young, cute, and talented, sorta funny and smart too
Old shit colorized; faded, feeling new
Too punk for the punks, we classically of the youth
Artpop saviors, metaphoric glue
Knew that we couldn't fit, we tying up new shoes, oh

I′m a child of myself, I'm a child of the culture
I want a picture of my face hanging on your wall
I been lying on myself just to make a deposit, but
Who knew that being broke could be so hard?

Oh no, not fair
I lost my friends again
Back in high school, I had cool hair
Bleach blonde and you give me that stare
Oh no, not fair
Party kids with your hands in the air
Let me know if anyone cares
Let me, let me know if anyone cares
