I'm coming back for sequels
Do you Dever really think you've won? Now you're feeble
Nothing on this far-gone son, all these people

I've sailed the seven seas to catch a breeze

Met a mF#matador who said it's my woman is more
Terrifying than any red bull that he saw
Set a Emsail, set a rail, met them kings and queens
There's so many trust, just the amphetamines
