The World’s Gonna Kick The Shit Out Of You

[Verse 1]
Every child's a great artist until someone says they're not
Adults who say that shit to kids are mad they missed their shot
You can't please everyone, so please don't try
I can't promise it'll be easy, or even be alright

[Chorus]
But since the world's gonna kick the shit out of you
Just remember that all you have to do
Is outlive all the people who
Kick the dreams right out of you

[Verse 2]
Every child is innocent until we decide we're not
Personally, I'd trust a four year old over anybody working at a ballot box
They don't care who made your clothes, or if you put glitter on your face
I guarantee they don't give a shit what's between your legs

[Chorus]
But since the world's gonna kick the shit out of you
Just remember that all you have to do
Is outlive all the people who
Kick the dreams right out of you

[Bridge]
Kids aren't scared of books
Kids aren't scared of drag
Kids get scared of clowns sometimes
But we've never enacted a seltzer ban
I don't make the rules, but you could say I never grew up
And I'm closer to childlike innocence than any of those fascist fucks

[Chorus]
But since the world's gonna kick the shit out of you
Just remember that all you have to do
Is outlive the people who
Kicked the dreams right out of you

Since the world's gonna kick the shit out of you
Just remember that all you have to do
Is outlive all the people who
Kick the dreams right out of you
The world's gonna kick the shit out of you
So remember that all you have to do
Is outlive all the people who
Kick the dreams right out of you
