[Verse 1]
You give a fuck and then you make it a vote, oh no
You wanted trouble but you never give it a go
I'd open up, but you'd never go home
So g-g-g-give it all up
No television, no primetime show
You blew their minds, but you ended up losing your own
You're out of luck if you blow or you suck
You gotta g-g-g-give it all up
[Pre-Chorus]
Our bodies drop
You can't get lost if you stay in the car
Nobody's dog
Sleeping all day, living life in the dark
[Chorus]
All the people adore ya
You're bored and you're boring
You can't wait to give up
And I'm still way too young
All the people adore ya
I'm done with ignoring
You can't wait to give up
And I'm still way too young
[Verse 2]
Stuck in a rut but, boy, you love it, try to make it your home
Rope a dope, kiss the ring
Photoshop out the sting
I can't connect
I'm underdressed
So just give it all up
You get evicted 'cause you're using the soap
Don't boo the clown 'cause you wanted a hero
You air punch as you swim in the muck
So baby, give it all up
[Pre-Chorus]
Our bodies drop
You can't get lost if you stay in the car
Nobody's dog
Sleeping all day, living life in the dark
[Chorus]
All the people adore ya
You're bored and you're boring
You can't wait to give up
And I'm still way too young
All the people adore ya
I'm done with ignoring
You can't wait to give up
And I'm still way too young
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
All the people adore ya
You're bored and you're boring
You can't wait to give up
And I'm still way too young
All the people adore ya
I'm done with ignoring
You can't wait to give up
And I'm still way too young

This existed in the batch of songs post-Power, pre-Transparency, in the ether. A friend of mine has been in the same group of pals since he was at school and they’re all marrying off and he felt like everyone was just choosing to give up on life, settle down and stop adventuring—a really naive, almo...
