Cage
[Intro]
Yeah
I'm in a cage
Do you see me?
I'm here in this cage
Check it
I'm in a cage
I'm in a cage
I'm in a cage, motherfucker
Cage, motherfucker
Do you see me?
I'm in a cage

[Verse 1]
I'm in a cage
I've just come to the stage where I can't be persuaded
To set foot on stage until someone has paid for a cage
Because a cage is all the rage in this day and age, for the proper famous
It's outrageous! It's taken me ages to come to the stage
Where I'm arriving on stages in cages
There's probably subtext, are you picking it up?
It's a metaphor for—
Hahahahaha who gives a fuck?

[Chorus]
I'm in a cage
(I'm in a fucking cage, dude)
I'm in a cage
[Verse 2]
I could've swung in on a swing
Done the Britney and P!nk thing
And then I coulda linked it to the ups and downs of existence
I could've flown in in a 'copter
Rode in on a chopper
Dropped down on a wire
Emerged from a fire
There's only one place for the genuine stars
And that's hanging out in bars
