lyrics
ALAN2020 [ENG Lyrics]
Salute, now up, it's bright in the morning
You did as we said, so you're already boring
Congrats should you say cause it's our turn to go in
We're one flesh, say bye to the mud
Bye to the mud, c'mon honey, go run!
We're free, my love, and the freedom is fun
Scream and shout, get loud, it's your turn
Me and us, everyday, every term
One flesh we bear fillin' up all the square
Mixed purple with red, then we swallowed the jet
One by one took the fix, then swallowed the mix
Soda or coffee, wow, how come anything hits
Heads keep on rollin', they might catch you goin'
It's better out there, if here you can't bear
This thing, that thing, keeps my breast wound-in
So do I say, pay no mind and no bullying
Oh no, love, don't fall for it!
Phobia's your company, piss off with it
Take it and your leave, we say, piss of with it
Strutted, arrived here to The Kiki
Kiki we say but we gravely mean it
Don't dumbstare, we certainly mean it
One by one took the fix, then we swallowed the mix
Full on swallowed the deux so to reach to the fuel
Phobia's your company, piss off with it
Take it and your leave, we say, piss of with it
Strutted, arrived here to The Kiki
We've had enough, we riot till the end
Off of our sight if you think we pick sides
Rock rock shock shock
Look behind, look with pride
Winning it wasn't the easiest ride
I'm free my love!
Down with the hate, let the flowers parade
Bloomin to blossom, overflow from the high tops
Seven hills, seven colors, we're lubunya
Colors don't fade and nor do our voices
