lyrics

Go on and bri-ing on your ma-a-sto-o-don
All bets against me for me to have my fun
The battles that I pick are far from won
It took more than twenty-four hours to build Rome

‘Ve got nothin’ to veil
Yes I am re-a-dy
Blazin’ my trail
With a mache-e-te

Nature did not ask to be born
Just exists takin’ on new form
Veins on my arms like a lightnin' storm
Face lookin’ kinda neanderthal
My body is a vehicle
And my genes decide where it goes
So I don’t have much of a choice
But to pick fights with mastodons

So I summon all I‘ve got
To keep fightin’ and not
Give in and drop

Every taste of victory
Gets me hooked on feelin’ free
“Na na na, hey, good bye” on repeat
Fist pumpin’ even in my sleep
And wherever this wave leaves me
I’ll swim to land and set back to sea
Every taste of victory
Gets me hooked on feelin’ free

Go on and bring on your ma-a-sto-o-don
It’s been de-ad quiet around here for too long
Set the field, raise the flag
Sound the horn, bang a gong
Set loose the primeval
That lives in everyone

‘Ve got nothin’ to veil
Yes I am re-a-dy
Blazin’ my trail
With a mache-e-te
