Negative Nelly Lyrics by Auld

Mainstream Music

2019

Round here we don't try to be cool
Anymore
Anymore

Nelly, Nelly watching your tongue
You know you might just make the news
Save up all your best opinions for the guys waving pitchforks and a noose

Round here we don't try to be cool
Anymore
Anymore

Practicing jokes and anecdotes
Researching topics that may provoke
I can barely clear my throat to know I cannot work this room

Nelly
Drop everything and lay with me

Round here we don't try to be cool
Anymore
Anymore

Nelly
Drop everything
And lay with me

And these bars are full
Of the new SoHo crowd
And they don't talk they shout
To each other's furrowed brow
And the city thrives
On my poor health
But I'm not scared of death
Just everything else

Just everything else

Let them see you fly
It's been a while
It's been a while
