Boris Annotated
[Verse 1]
Jenny came in with a price held high and a smile on
Told me about the men who came through and shined on
How can you talk about numbers, trends and formulas?
Surely enough people dressed like gods and judges to put a tag on
[Verse 2]
Rule of thumb: it's dead and numb until you say it
Everyone's sitting peacefully at home, until they pay it
How can you say that a heart and soul is not enough?
A brain is nothing but an agglomeration of neurons
[Chorus]
Break it make it, I'd like to ignite
Birds don't buy their wings in order to take flight
A dream is not at stake if you wake it
You're bringing me down with your chin held high
So save it
Break it make it, I'd like to ignite
Birds don't buy their wings in order to take flight
A dream is not at stake if you wake it
You're bringing me down with your chin held high
So save it
[Verse 3]
Boris came through with his beard glued on and his ears plugged
Told me about the things he did before they caught on
Told me to catch a trend by its tail so I can drag along
Surely enough teens on their knees riding the same wave, with their tops off
[Verse 4]
He tells me to try less, next day he says try harder
Well tell it to your mirror, bitch I'm Harry Potter
And who said it's cool or tight to not give a fuck
A game played for anything other than love, is just a bluff
[Chorus]
Break it make it, I'd like to ignite
Birds don't buy their wings in order to take flight
A dream is not at stake if you wake it
You're bringing me down with your chin held high
So save it
Break it make it, I'd like to ignite
Birds don't buy their wings in order to take flight
A dream is not at stake if you wake it
You're bringing me down with your chin held high
So save it
[Bridge]
You say my life's a frown
'cause you're hanging upside down
You say my light has dimmed
I say your vision's slim
Who do you want to impress or to be for
And tell me what that has to do with me
Who do you want to impress or to be for
And tell me what that has to do with me
Who do you want to impress or to be for
And tell me what that has to do with me
Who do you want to impress or to be for
And tell me what that has to do with me
[Chorus]
Break it make it, I'd like to ignite
Birds don't buy their wings in order to take flight
A dream is not at stake if you wake it
You're bringing me down with your chin held high
So save it
Break it make it, I'd like to ignite
Birds don't buy their wings in order to take flight
A dream is not at stake if you wake it
You're bringing me down with your chin held high
So save it
