Joe LaPorta - Defender lyrics

[Hook] Alex up the street called, said he saw a bobcat Keep the pets inside, notify your contacts [Verse 1] New Salem Brave new voodoo Wave a witch hammer in a haven for the woo woo I'm paper china dinner, mostly picking at my stitches The bloody hair, bad code, bunny ears, dad jokes b**h about Lamictal to whichever vixen listen The skin rash, the schism, a million rash decisions In truth, he had a capital T terrible 2 days That chewed his plumage to the root And proved a prequel to malaise A feud he knew was brewing blew up in his face He'd been replaying the scenario for days With the variables replaced Meh Loser in the sky with more diamonds than the carpet from the Shining Part riot, part Orion We jarred a lot of lightning up Shook a turkey leg or 10 Maybe we deserve a day of rest Not to mention...
