Guidelines they so staunchly espouse break loose
Adjustable once they are exposed

Cry misappropriating know-alls
Lifestyles disproportionate

Virtuous fawning makes my flesh crawl
Are you some god, king and sage?
God, king and sage?
God, king and sage?
God, king and sage?

Superfluous slurs
Superfluous slurs

Superfluous slurs

Superfluous slurs
[Chorus 1]

Cry misappropriating know-alls
Conduct inappropriate
