lyrics

My former bully tried selling me insurance
It made me think of tigers performing at the circus.

He should be in a jungle instead he’s at my service
Like monsters drinking coffee in a chair behind the curtain

It appears my worst fears are paid scale to be a burden
Gladiators guard the tavern while I’m inside drinking Bourbon

Everyone one of us in costume peddling a purpose
Looking for our names in the news that makes us nervous

While politicians promise they are robbing us in earnest
Coming up with cures for the people that they’re hurting

Stewing in the pot that a silver spoon is stirring
The futures so bright and incredibly disturbing

And I don’t have the answers I’m just trying to sell the wording
See myself in others how the fuck am I still horny?

Flirting with my forties Life's a string of Monday mornings
Worried I sound corny as I shrug off every warning

Bobby rocks chaps at the drop of a hat
I stay cool under pressure cause you suckas are whack
Bobby roks cats at the top of their game I make cool motherfuckers look angry and lame
Okay?


Revenge of the nerds
Invasion of the geeks
Five dudes run the planet from a mansion by the beach
I used to fear death but now I fear living
Cause every fucking day the wrong sides winning.

Revenge of the nerds
Invasion of the geek
Five dudes run the planet from a mansion by the beach
I used to fear death but now I fear living
Cause every fucking day the wrong sides winning.


I have labored in cocinas with the people you hate
Not a rich kid playing poor catching every single break

I was breaking down your tables for very little wage
Life becomes a stage when your ass is getting played

The further down you go the longer down you stay
The less you getting paid the more you feel the shame

Getting angry over nothing almost every single day
Hear your single getting played while you're washing people’s plates
Buying passes for the train at the currency exchange

Serve the Scooby Doo gang veggie burgers in the shade
Being told by trust funds I’m not cool enough to hang

As they gentrified the place that they claimed to want to save
Courting underpaid teachers teaching me their ways

On how to live on nothing when there’s nothing left to gain
The working class aint dying it’s just dying to be free
Eating tacos and pozole getting drunk and smoking weed

Revenge of the nerds
Invasion of the geek
Five dudes run the planet from a mansion by the beach
I used to fear death but now I fear living
Cause every fucking day the wrong sides winning.

Revenge of the nerds
Invasion of the geeks
Five dudes run the world from a mansion by the beach
I used to fear death but now I fear living
Cause every fucking day the wrong sides winning.

Revenge of the nerds
Invasion of the geek
Five dudes run the world from a mansion by the beach
I used to fear death but now I fear living
Cause every fucking day the wrong sides winning.
