Acting Up Lyrics by The Holdup

Killing Time

2018

[Hook]
Looking for some drama
I can spare some karma
I know I've been on one
Acting up again
Drinking on a Tuesday
Fuck whatever you say
Ain't nothing to do so
Go and tell your friends
I'm acting up again

[Verse 1]
I got everything I need and I'm still mad
I've been talking hella shit, I don't feel bad
I ain't trying to sit and talk to no one
Tell me I'm a Grinch, I'm a cold one
I say it takes one to know one
Play me a song and make it a slow one
This ain't no lemonade
I got no smile to show you
And if I don't get paid
Make sure that I don't know you, baby
I don't feel much lately
I'm so tired of waiting
Shut up and get naked

[Hook]
Looking for some drama
I can spare some karma
I know I've been on one
Acting up again
Drinking on a Tuesday
Fuck whatever you say
Ain't nothing to do so
Go and tell your friends
I'm acting up again, again, again
Acting up again, again, again
Acting up again

[Verse 2]
Everything you're doing, man, I hate it
Only get excited if I'm faded
Everybody's telling me I'm jaded
'Cause I'm so unimpressed with anything I created
No more fucking interviews unless they're gonna pay me
'Cause I can't tell the truth or everyone I love will hate me
Sex is like the only thing that I find entertaining
Ain't nobody ready for the shit I wanna say this now
I get compliments
But I don't really feel those
I just dress like this so
They think I'm a hero
Higher than those cities
They're just ones and zero's
Give me mask and arrow

[Hook]
Looking for some drama
I can spare some karma
I know I've been on one
Acting up again
Drinking on a Tuesday
Fuck whatever you say
Ain't nothing to do so
Go and tell your friends
I'm acting up again, again, again
Acting up again, again, again
Acting up again, again, again
Acting up again, again, again
Acting up again
