[Instrumental Intro]
[Verse 1]
I hear you on the radio
You permeate my screen, it's unkind, but
If I met you in a scissor fight
I'd cut off both your wings on principle alone
Principle alone
[Chorus]
Hey, megalomaniac
You're no Jesus, yeah, you're no fucking Elvis
Wash your hands clean of yourself, baby, and
Step down, step down, step down
[Verse 2]
If I were your appendages
I'd hold open your eyes so you would see
That all of us are heaven sent (Never meant to be only one)
And there was never meant to be only one
To be only one
[Chorus]
Hey, megalomaniac
You're no Jesus, yeah, you're no fucking Elvis
Wash your hands clean of yourself, baby, and
Step down, step down, step down
Step down
Step down
Oh, step down
Ooh
[Bridge]
You're, you're, you're
You're no Jesus, you're no Elvis
You're no Jesus
You're no Jesus, you're no Elvis
You're no answer, ooh
[Pre-Chorus]
Step down, step down, step down
Step down, hey, hey
[Chorus]
Hey, megalomaniac
You're no Jesus, yeah, you're no fucking Elvis
Wash your hands clean of yourself, baby, and
Step down, step... step down
[Outro]
Step down
Oh, step down
Oh, step down
Step down
