A Hundred Words You Could Say Instead of Swag Lyrics by Watsky

Nothing Like the First Time

2013

[Intro]
Swag, swag, swag, swag, swag, swag, swag, swag
[Chorus]
I thought "swag" was dead way before this
I thought "swag" had been buried in the forest
But then Bieber said "swag" in a chorus
And I went and bought a big fat thesaurus (I said)
I thought "swag" was dead way before this
I thought "swag" had been buried in the forest
But then Bieber said "swag" in a chorus
And I went and bought a big fat thesaurus
(Here's some other options)
[Verse 1]
You're a boss hog, you're a top dog
You're so slamming that I would say you've got pogs
You're suave, swell, sick
In the sense of being ill, chill, slick
You're hip, you're a hit, you're the tits, you're it
If I were being rude, then I would say you're the shhh...
Shimmy shimmy Cocoa Puffs, you're so loco
You're so dope, it's nuts, you're as raw as an open cut
You're bold, you're golden, you're funner
A stone cold stunner, a real mean mugger
You're colder than the other side of my pillow
Or hot as the underside of a cover in a Los Angeles summer
You're not dumb and dumber, you're smart and smarter
You're hard and harder, you're Peter Parker
Right after the spider bite, you're so dynamite
You're the brightest light; no, you're the hypest hype
You're so zen, you're a 10, you're a gem
You're the creme de la creme de la creme de la creme
[Spoken Interlude]
In 1860, Walt Whitman wrote "I cock my hat as I please" in his famous poem "Leaves of Grass"
In 2012, Justin Bieber said, "Swag, swag, swag on you
Chillin' by the fire while we eatin' fondue
I don't know about me, but I know about you
Say hello to falsetto in three, two, swag"
[Chorus]
I thought "swag" was dead way before this
I thought "swag" had been buried in the forest
But then Bieber said "swag" in a chorus
And I went and bought a big fat thesaurus (Say it again!)
I thought "swag" was dead way before this
I thought "swag" had been buried in the forest
But then Bieber said "swag" in a chorus
And I went and bought a big fat thesaurus
(Four, three, two, swag)
[Verse 2]
Presence, essence, pizzazz, panache, dashing, flashy, brazen and brash
The verve, the nerve, the truth, the proof, the cash, the passion and class
Better than ever, cool as a cucumber, smoother than butter, a little bit smug
Hotter than a mug, eye of the tiger, the heart of a lion, the look of a thug
Pick of the litter, the attitude, the cleanup hitter, the baddest dude
Totally sure, full of allure, a raconteur, the poison and cure
Gravitas, glamour, you're droppin' the hammer, a swashbuckling debonaire
A-lister with an X factor, a capital G with the best hair
Dragon slayer, the franchise player, the king, the president, governor, mayor
You're rare, the opposite of square and pompous, you're shaped with flair like a rhombus
Confident, jaunty, awesomely saucy, you got more props than Gandhi
Got it on lock, rocks and moxie, you're rocking some brand new socksies
From city to city, the grittiest kid, and he could be a little bit cocky
But saying "swag" is obnoxious
And if you be looking to capture the confident way that I'm walking and talking, there's options!
Just say he's got "Watsky"
[Chorus]
I thought "swag" was dead way before this (Good)
I thought "swag" had been buried in the forest (You really don't have to)
But then Bieber said "swag" in a chorus
And I went and bought a big fat thesaurus (Say it again!)
I thought "swag" was dead way before this
I thought "swag" had been buried in the forest
But then Bieber said "swag" in a chorus
And I went and bought a big fat thesaurus
[Outro]
Swag
Swaggy
Swaggity Andy
Maybe I'll climb the Swaggro Crag
Like...swagriculture
Don't get me swaggravated, though, bro
Take a— take a barrel over Ni-swag-ra Falls, feel me?
Just hella swaggy, though, all day, you know?
Son, it's just, like, it's a lifestyle, you feel me?
