Spoiled Lyrics

Lyrics From Live Performance and Instagram

[Verse 1]
Gambling with the sun
On which one of us dies young
I ain't afraid to hold the gun
If it leads to me the safe
Tell the fellas at the morgue
That I'm heading back on tour
Gonna put them boys to work
"Wipe your hands and wash your face"

[Pre-Chorus]
I'm filling every pause
I'm speaking when I know something
It's everything I want
It's everything I want

[Chorus]
I hope my children get spoiled when they get old
So they can fuck up all they want and blame it all on their dad
So they can watch me go to work then fall asleep on the couch
They'll say, "I wanna be you, but I don't wanna be that"
They'll say, "I wanna be you, but I don't wanna be that"

[Verse 2]
I'm betting on the north
To drag my ass back down to Earth
'Cause, where I'm from and what I'm worth
Have gotten too damn intertwined
If I'm gone this time next year
If I inhale the smoke and smash the mirrors
Fuck it, I might even disappear
I hope you've had a decent time
[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause I'm filling every pause
I'm speaking when I know something
It's everything I want
It's everything I want

[Chorus]
Just hope my children get spoiled when they get old
So they can fuck up all they want and blame it all on their dad
So they can watch me go to work then fall asleep on the couch
They'll say, "I wanna be you, but I don't wanna be that"
They'll say, "I wanna be you, but I don't wanna be that"

[Outro]
I'm gambling with the sun
Oh, man, on which one of us dies young
I ain't afraid to hold the gun
If it leads to me the safe
I'm filling every pause
I'm speaking when I know something
It's everything I want
It's everything I want

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
