​parents Lyrics

[Intro]
Blah

[Verse 1]
I was born in a messed-up century
My favourite flavoured sweets are raspberry amphetamines
I bought a car, Beretta, age sixteen
I brush my teeth with bleach 'cause I ain't got time for cavities
My daddy put a gun to my head
Said, "If you kiss a boy, I'm gonna shoot you dead"
So I tied him up with gaffer tape and I locked him in a shed
Then I went out to the garden and I fucked my best friend

[Chorus]
'Cause my high hopes are getting low
Because these people are so old
The way they think about it all
If I tried, I would never know
My high hopes are getting low
But I know I'll never be alone
It's alright, we'll survive
'Cause parents ain't always right

[Post-Chorus]
I-I-I-I, I-I-I-I
I-I-I-I-I-I-I
I-I-I-I, I-I-I-I
I-I-I-I-I-I-I

[Verse 2]
Drop a toaster in my bath, watch my mum and dad laugh
See a thousand volts go through the son they wish they never had
They told me casual affection leads to sexual infection
But it's hard to get an erection when you're so used to rejection
Yeah, the teacher fucked the preacher
But then he had to leave her
Had to wash away the sins of a male cheerleader
"Hi, nice to meet ya," got nothing to believe in
So let me know when my breathing stops

[Chorus]
'Cause my high hopes are getting low
Because these people are so old
The way they think about it all
If I tried, I would never know
My high hopes are getting low
But I know I'll never be alone
It's alright, we'll survive
'Cause parents ain't always right

[Post-Chorus]
I-I-I-I, I-I-I-I
I-I-I-I-I-I-I
I-I-I-I, I-I-I-I
I-I-I-I-I-I-I

[Bridge]
Tick, tock, stop the clock
Because I get the feeling that I'm gonna get shot
Tick, tock, stop the clock
Because I get the feeling that I'm gonna get shot

[Chorus]
My high hopes are getting low
Because these people are so old
The way they think about it all
If I tried, I would never know
High hopes are getting low
But I know I'll never be alone
It's alright, we'll survive
'Cause parents ain't always right

[Post-Chorus]
I-I-I-I, I-I-I-I
I-I-I-I-I-I-I
I-I-I-I, I-I-I-I
I-I-I-I-I-I-I

What have the artists said about the song?

This song is literally a tribute to individualism. A statement saying that no one, except yourself, can dictate what is right for you and your life and who you should be. I wanted it to kind of sound a bit like Eminem in 2019 and have the instrumentation to almost be comical and witty and in your fa...

How did the song start?

I was in Los Angeles and we were in a studio and I just turned to my producers like, “I want to write a song where I can genuinely paint the outrageous pictures that go on inside my head without censorship with nothing. No holds barred, no senses, no rules, no boundaries. Just straight out my head,...

What inspired the song?

I’ve felt really misunderstood and really oppressed my whole life because I behaved in a way that was different than people wanted me to. People are afraid of something they don’t understand. They always will be.

So if they don’t understand yet, they will soon, because if you are yourself, then the...
