Melanie Martinez’s song Drama Club and The Principal Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Everyone's so soft, everyone's so sensitive
Do I offend you?
You're hanging on my sentences
You can keep your costume and you can keep your mask
I'ma take a bow so you can kiss my ass

Sneaky, greedy, money seeking
Always peeping, fucking creeping
Got it on the down low
So you think you always squeaky
What if I had told your mother
Her son was a cruel motherfucker?
Ah

[Pre-Chorus]
It’s not just me, it's everybody who thinks that you're fucking ugly
When you come and hurt us just so you can get your money
Forced to follow the leader who's being possessed by demons

[Chorus]
I never signed up for your drama
Up for your drama, up for your drama club
I never signed up for your drama
Up for your drama club
I've tried to make you listen, but you won't, it's your way, right?
Killing kids all day and night, prescription pills and online fights
Shooting at the angels while claiming you're the good guy
All you want is cash and hype
Fuck our dreams and that’s not right

[Post-Chorus]
The principal, oh, oh
Oh, where's the principle?
Oh, where's the principle?
Oh, where's the principle?
Oh, oh
Oh, where's the principle?
Oh, where's the principle?

[Verse 2]
They try to feed you lines that you have to memorize
You always hide behind your Wizard of Oz disguise
Do you even have a brain?
You're sticking to a page
You're faking all your pain, yeah, you're bleeding on a stage

Complicated, overrated
You're fixated and elated
By the separation in this place that you've created
Fuck all of your rules and guidelines
You shouldn’t even be on the sidelines
[Pre-Chorus]
It’s not just me, it's everybody who thinks that you're fucking ugly
When you come and hurt us just so you can get your money
Forced to follow the leader who's being possessed by demons

[Chorus]
I never signed up for your drama
Up for your drama, up for your drama club
I never signed up for your drama
Up for your drama club

I've tried to make you listen, but you won't, it's your way, right?
Killing kids all day and night, prescription pills and online fights
Shooting at the angels while claiming you're the good guy
All you want is cash and hype
Fuck our dreams and that’s not right

[Post-Chorus]
The principal, oh, oh
Oh, where's the principle?
Oh, where's the principle?
Oh, where's the principle?
Oh, oh
Oh, where's the principle?
Oh, where's the principle?
[Verse 3]
I don't wanna be an actress, living by a script
Who cares about practice?
Hmm, I don't give a shit
You're over-analyzing every word I say
There's a whole world out there, you're living a play
Fuck your auditorium, I think it's pretty boring and

[Pre-Chorus]
It’s not just me, it's everybody who thinks that you're fucking ugly
When you come and hurt us just so you can get your money
Forced to follow the leader who's being possessed by demons

[Chorus]
I never signed up for your drama
Up for your drama, up for your drama club
I never signed up for your drama
Up for your drama club
(Ooh)
I never signed up for your drama club
(Ooh)
For your drama club
I never signed up for your drama
(Ooh)
Up for your drama, up for your drama club
I never signed up for your drama
(Ooh)
Up for your drama, up for your drama club

I've tried to make you listen, but you won't, it's your way, right?
Killing kids all day and night, prescription pills and online fights
Shooting at the angels while claiming you're the good guy
All you want is cash and hype
Fuck our dreams and that’s not right

[Bridge]
You don't know the pain that you are causing
Yeah, your actions hurt, so do your words
The more you try to fuck us over
We will be there yelling at your front do

For your drama club
Mmm, mmm

[Pre-Chorus]
It’s not just me, it's everybody who thinks that you're fucking ugly
When you come and hurt us just so you can get your money
Forced to follow the leader who's being possessed by demons

[Chorus]
I never signed up
(Ooh)
Mmm, mmm
I never signed up
(Ooh)
Never signed up
Never signed up for your drama club
I never signed up for your drama
(Ooh)
For your drama
For your drama club
I never signed up for your drama
(Ooh)
Up for your drama, for your drama club
I never signed up for your drama
(Ooh)
Up for your drama, up for your drama club
I never signed up for your drama
(Ooh)
Up for your drama, up for your drama club
I never signed up for your drama
(Ooh)
Up for your drama, up for your drama club
I never signed up for your drama
(Ooh)
Up for your drama, up for your drama club

[Outro]
I've tried to make you listen, but you won't, it’s your way, right?
