Villain

[Intro]
La la-la, la la-la, la la-la, la la-la
La la-la, la la-la, la

[Verse 1]
All I'm trying to do is shake loose
From the fake news
Find the real truth
I'm sending out a signal of my virtues
Ay, look at all my virtues
If I'm the loudest and first
And point out the worst
Maybe I can be the king
Of the mountain of dirt that I'm slingin'
That's why I'm singin'

[Chorus]
I need a villain
So I can be the hero
I'm more than willin'
To put somebody in the gallows
I've got some Wi-Fi
And some outrage, so
All I need to find is a good scapegoat
There's nothing wrong with killin'
As long as the blood that you're spillin'
Belongs to a villain
(La la-la, la la-la, la la-la, la la-la)
(La la-la, la la-la, la)

[Verse 2]
I gotta tell you all the secrets right here and now
'Fore the censors and the fact-checkers shut me down
All the people who agree with me, gather 'round
So I can keep out
The reasonable doubt
Complicated algorithms
Leadin' me to wisdom
Showin' me conspiracies in which I am a victim
The best way to find a bad guy
Is fill a loud voice
With some good lies

[Chorus]
I need a villain
So I can be the hero
I'm more than willin'
To put somebody in the gallows
I've got some Wi-Fi
And some outrage, so
All I need to find is a good scapegoat
There's nothing wrong with killin'
As long as the blood that you're spillin'
Belongs to a villain

[Bridge]
Search me, God, and know my heart
But just the parts that aren't needing to be changed
I cannot face the shame of my reality
I need a person worse than me
To be
The villain
Oh, I need a villain
Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh

[Chorus]
I need a villain
So I can be the hero
I'm more than willin'
To put somebody in the gallows
I've got some Wi-Fi
And some outrage, so
All I need to find is a good scapegoat
There's nothing wrong with killin'
As long as the blood that you're spillin'
Belongs to a villain
(La la-la, la la-la, la la-la, la la-la)
(La la-la, la la-la, la)
