Must Outdo

Who said the world was fair?
Who said? No one.
Who said you have to care?
No one, no one.

Now you’re l,
l, l, l, l,
looking out for number one,
b, b, b, b,
because your heart is just an engine
that’s tick, tick,
tick, tick, tick, tick,
ticking over and it makes sense
that p, p,
p, p, p, p,
power is a licence.

Who said the world was fair?
Who said? No one.
Who said there’s some to spare?
No one. No one.

Now you’re
check, check, check, check,
checking out competition,
g, g, g, g,
g, g, g, g,
g, got to out do, none
b, b, b, b,
b, but the best, the rest no consequence
and f, f, f, f, f, f,
fuck you is your licence.

Work and play:

must outdo
(you) must outdo.
