lyrics

Give a man a fish he can put it in fish tank
Give that man an oyster and he expects a pearl
Give a man a gun and he can rob a big bank
But give that man a bank then he can rob the world

Grumpy as fuck… old dude yelling at the sky
like being old and wise was a curse
Realize there aint an old man alive
that wasn't a foolish little young one first

People camouflage for protection
and use deception to blend in in with the leaves
When these deceivers are surrounded by leaf eaters
them lies aint the best disguise to believe

The media is now entertainment
the quality news is found on comedy shows
Dont taste the shit that they shovel in tow
but its known most hold their nostrils and just guzzle it slow

A liar is as a liar does and when push comes to shove
The shover's holding all the cards
Look him in the eye with a shrug lost the love lost the buzz
Tattoo over the scars

Give a man a fish he can put it in fish tank
Give that man an oyster and he expects a pearl
Give a man a gun and he can rob a big bank
But give that man a bank then he can rob the world
