lyrics

Orange is the traitor

I wish I could be considered Frank O'Hara on his lunch break, permanently,
waxing poetic with dramatic sweeps in my notebook on New York's streets.
With Beatniks bumbling around, fumbling with something aesthetic in their mouths,
but really saying nothing,
I think I'm invincible, at least on paper, but I'll probably amount to nothing
cause we're just a bunch of foul-mouthed kids, penning songs and talking shit
but ,microphone check, when it's on, that's it
cause we're the meanest business this side of New Orleans
cause we're the meanest business this side of New Orleans
cause we're the meanest business this side of New Orleans
so come on, Wayne, get at me.
haha, alright let's go:

my hands are worn and sore from ruthless wars of infinite attrition so I labored through the conditions of my surrender:
I will never
cause this is mine and I won't let it die,
I don't mince my words and you won't take me alive
cause I shoulda died last summer anyway, so what's there left to lose?

when we're just a bunch of foul-mouthed kids, penning songs and talking shit
but, microphone check, when it's on, that's it
cause we're the meanest business this side of New Orleans
cause we're the meanest business this side of New Orleans
we're the meanest business this side of New Orleans.
yeah, yeah, come on Wayne, get at me:

there's something to be said about someone singing the words and actually meaning them
but I've got no one to impress cause all my heroes are dead, yeah all my heroes are dead but
this is mine, and I won't let it die, I don't mince my words and you won't take me alive
cause this is mine, and I won't let it die, I don't mince my words and you won't take me alive
but
I got a little pride, even if I can't be on Cash Money, come on, Wayne, get at me
come on, Wayne, get at me
come on, Wayne, get at me
come on, Wayne, get at me
come on, Wayne, get at me
come on, Wayne, get at me
come on, Wayne, get at me now.

(go on, Jay, tell em kid, you the god damn meanest biz
go on, Jay, tell em kid, you're the god damn meanest biz
whoa, whoa
go on, Jay, tell em kid, you the god damn meanest biz
go on, Jay, tell em kid, you're the god damn meanest biz)
