lyrics

I am the president of DIY
I’m talking tons of shit about all the bands I don’t like
Didn’t you hear I’m beefing with Henry Rollins online
And not a single soul is taking his side
So get in line

I’m leading a revolution in DIY
I invented a brand new genre, being this cool should be a crime
I recently just went vegan, but only some of the time
Because every hero needs a cheat day, my guy
Don’t sweat it, it’s fine

Everyone’s talking about me in DIY
I just hit 10k on Twitter, dude, fuck you, who needs a spine?
I’ve studied the scene vernacular, I’ve got some records to sign
These days, they sell out 10% of the time
They’ll sell for $45,000 in 2029

I’m the hottest new pariah in DIY
A slew of fucked up things I did finally came to light
I posted my notes app apology, I thought through every line
But I guess that it just wasn’t the time
Oh, and also, I lied

I’d like to announce my retirement from DIY
The punk world wasn’t ready for me, I get it, it’s fine
I’d like to thank my followers, my mom and my wife
Maybe 3 years from now I’ll give it another try
Or even better, I’ll die.
