[Chorus]
The race is on, the king is dead
The shit is on appointed heads
[Verse 1]
And he's got a son
"And you got a daughter," he said
The bridge is drawn
The suitcase's on the bed
[Verse 2]
The show goes on
The spoilers lose the day
The spotlight on
The girls who flew away
From jigsaw laws
The tanners who remained
We're drunken frat boys through
Initiation gained
[Verse 3]
"Greetings, noble Caesar
We have come to congratulate
You on your successful crossing
Of the Rubicon"
[Verse 4]
Circling to back around
New and used
Challenging
"All join on"
[Chorus]
The race is on, the king is dead
The race is on, the king is dead
[Verse 5]
Every single highway
Is the wrong way home
Traffic information directing:
Turn around
Check your odometer
Turn your headlights on
