[Verse 1]
Dumb is the new smart
Light is the new dark
Alone is the new crowd
Loud is the new loud
Heart is the same heart
Bitter's the new sweet
Shallow's the new deep
Out is the new in
Shaming's the new sin
I am the same me
[Pre-Chorus]
And I'm just spinning round
Spinning round, trying to break it down
[Chorus]
Cause I got ten thousand damn ideas
I got a million songs right here
Ten million places I can be
But I don't got one, don't got one
25 billion boys out there
I got a zillion things to wear
I got five thousand friends who share
But I don't got one
[Verse 2]
Low is the new high
Truth is the new lie
Weird is the new norm
Cold is the new warm
What is the new why
Black is the new gold
Shame is the new Show (show,show)
Fear is the new hope
Quit is the new cope
I'm over this new stuff
[Pre-Chorus]
And I'm just spinning round
Spinning round, trying to break it down
[Chorus]
Cause I got ten thousand damn ideas
I got a million songs right here
Ten million places I can be
But I don't got one, don't got one
25 billion boys out there
I got a zillion things to wear
I got five thousand friends who share
But I don't got one (don't got one)
[Pre-Chorus]
And I'm just spinning round
Spinning round, trying to break it down
[Chorus]
Cause I got ten thousand damn ideas
I got a million songs right here
Ten million places I can be
But I don't got one, don't got one
25 billion boys out there
I got a zillion things to wear
I got five thousand friends who share
But I don't got one
But I don't got one
Don’t Got One was written by Hailey Knox & Peter Zizzo & Imani Coppola & Mike “Hank” Mangini.

Hailey Knox released Don’t Got One on Thu Jan 18 2018.
While working in the studio, I remember messing around with the guitar chords and mumbling melodies. We started coming up with concepts and talking about social media and the effect it can have on you. I feel like it was important to make sure there wasn’t too much production because I love the song...
“Don’t Got One” was inspired by many things. When writing the song, we talked about the effect social media has on people. Sometimes I spend too much time looking at what others are posting and comparing myself, which you should never do. I was also feeling kind of lost when we started writing this...
The process was really fun. I worked with Peter Zizzo, Mike Mangini and Imani Coppola. We started with the chord progression on guitar and began writing verses and came up with this concept of feeling alone and like you “Don’t Got One”. We all felt there was something really special about this song.
