I Am Shogun

Jared Morris and The Nice Price

Cause I am the shogun
The actual shogun
I live my rankLife, but you have yourself to thank

Oh I am a rodent
I′ll be gone in a moment
To scrounge for scraps of food
From your various mood swings

Pull Joan of arcs cord
She was on fire for the lord
She died at nineteen
Without making a scene

My standards have lapsed
Bystanders collapsed
Come and sit on my lap
We have time for a nap

We divided our focus
Confused love for hocus pocus
I wrote you by mistake
I am a faker, fuck her or hate her

You wrote a new book
To teach me how to cook
I didn't take a second look
I ate as much as it took

We′re going to hell
Strapped to the liberty bell
In a gravity well
We've cracked, why can you tell?

Some will be in marriage
Birth pains, without the carriage
There's two in one bed
One′s gone the mother is left

I sit here and wait
And you break the date
Just like I would
Honey, are you happy?

In the garden of Eden
Alone and bleeding
No need to cover up
In here it′s just us

A sleek presentation
Designed to fool a nation
The salesmen were so dull
They made no cents at all

We're driving on fumes
To the waiting rooms
Doctor and patient
Both are mutations

I′m a canon ball
With no balls at all
I'm an auto-cannibal
Do you take me for a fool?
Don′t

I am an agent
A chemical agent
You are so flagrant
You dress like a vagrant

So what's your excuse
Boy, for singing the blues?
Oh can you excuse
Me
For being so choosy

What′s your excuse?
Honey, what's your excuse?
Master and servant
Overlap at this circus

Oh I am a shogun
An actual showman
But I'd rather hear from you
Just once
Just once
Just once
