[Chorus]
When I'm in the pit
I'm gonna punch and kick
When I'm in the pit, don't you know
I'm gonna fuck up shit
[Incomprehensible]
Straight down to you
Shit!
Got my wife beater on, steel toe Dr. Martens on my feet yea
I run around in a little circle, I'm wonderin' who to beat
And you know it's really cool, 'cause I played football in high school
Gonna push some little girls tonight, look out fag there's gonna be a fight
[Chorus]
When I'm in the pit
I'm gonna punch and kick
When I'm in the pit, don't you know
I'm gonna fuck up shit
And you wanna be just like me, I wish I could be myself
And you wanna be just like me, 'cause I can't think of no one else
And you know it's really great to punch somebody right in the face
Gonna push some little girls tonight, look out fag there's gonna be a fight

When I'm in the pit
I'm gonna punch and kick
When I'm in the pit, don't you know
I'm gonna fuck up shit
[Incomprehensible]
Got my wife beater on, steel toe Dr. Martens on my feet, yea
I run around in a little circle, I'm wonderin' who to beat
And you know it's really great to punch somebody right in the face
Gonna push some little girls tonight, look out fag there's gonna be a fight
[Chorus]
When I'm in the pit
I'm gonna punch and kick
When I'm in the pit, don't you know
I'm gonna fuck up shit, oh man!

Aaron: “Now that I’m old, I just stand in the back and nod my head and go, ‘yeah, that’s cool,’...
