TANTRUM Lyrics by TOWNS

sentimental slowdown

2024

[Verse 1]
Had a tantrum like a young boy
Throwing all my old toys
Say sorry to the other kids
Slamming doors like a lost cause
Didn't let my mind pause
Sat here, staring at my dinner plate
"Aw, when can I go on?" (When can I go on?)
[Chorus]
Mercenary, place is scary
Eating up my serve of merry
Superficial, status critical
My lips are sealed, I'll be invisible
[Verse 2]
They said, "You gotta do it my way
Or you take the highway"
But driving never bothered me
"Should've listened to your sister"
"You're such a bad listener"
And I heard it on the radio
"La, la-la-la-la-la-la-la"
[Chorus]
Mercenary, place is scary
Eating up my serve of merry
Superficial, status critical
My lips are sealed, I'll be invisible
[Refrain]
I said, I said, I said, I said I'd stay
Stay away from old ways
I may, I may, I may, I may, I may
Fall into the same blaze
[Bridge]
Been spending way too long
Inside my brain and it feels wrong
I guess I'll write a song
And learn to be more right than wrong
[Chorus]
Mercenary, place is scary
Eating up my serve of merry
Superficial, status critical
My lips are sealed, I'll be invisible
[Refrain]
I said, I said, I said, I said I'd stay
Stay away from old ways
I may, I may, I may, I may, I may
Fall into the same blaze
[Outro]
(Had a tantrum like a young boy)
(Throwing all my old toys)
(Say sorry to the other kids)
(Slamming doors like a lost cause)
(Didn't let my mind pause)
(Sat here, staring at my dinner plate)
("Aw, when can I go on?")
(Mercenary, place is scary)
(Da-da-da-da-da)
(When can I go on?)
