[Verse 1]
He copped the tickets from a scalper
We paid a little premium but we figured it was justified
We got up to the parking lot a couple hours early
To check up on the enemy and make sure we were fortified
Everybody's talking about the matchup in the trenches
The clash of the defenses. Someone's got to make a stop
We were drinking from a cooler in thе hatchback of a Honda
He had borrowed from his brother causе his truck was in the shop
[Verse 2]
By the time we stumbled up to our seats
Half of us barely could see
I was foaming at the mouth and fading in and out
For the national anthem
'Cause you're gonna go rabid
If you keep getting bit by the rat race
You'll be fighting and sniping
At the factions within the same fanbase
We all overdo the salute
When the hornets hit the flyover halftime
But his eyes get so wild and I could tell by his smile
He was plotting a stunt for the timeline
[Verse 3]
He's never been so good at modern mathematics
But subtraction just comes really naturally
Because most of his life they've been taking things away from him
And saying they'll come back to us eventually
But now it feels like this town's
Near the end of the whole sordid affair
And it's hard to explain
With no emoji indicating despair
Just before half with like ten seconds left
The ref made a terrible call
My man flew down the stairs and jumped over the rail
Shook off the security and picked up the ball
He copped the tickets from a scalper
We paid a little premium but we figured it was justified
We got up to the parking lot a couple hours early
To check up on the enemy and make sure we were fortified
Everybody's talking about the matchup in the trenches
The clash of the defenses. Someone's got to make a stop
We were drinking from a cooler in thе hatchback of a Honda
He had borrowed from his brother causе his truck was in the shop
[Verse 2]
By the time we stumbled up to our seats
Half of us barely could see
I was foaming at the mouth and fading in and out
For the national anthem
'Cause you're gonna go rabid
If you keep getting bit by the rat race
You'll be fighting and sniping
At the factions within the same fanbase
We all overdo the salute
When the hornets hit the flyover halftime
But his eyes get so wild and I could tell by his smile
He was plotting a stunt for the timeline
[Verse 3]
He's never been so good at modern mathematics
But subtraction just comes really naturally
Because most of his life they've been taking things away from him
And saying they'll come back to us eventually
But now it feels like this town's
Near the end of the whole sordid affair
And it's hard to explain
With no emoji indicating despair
Just before half with like ten seconds left
The ref made a terrible call
My man flew down the stairs and jumped over the rail
Shook off the security and picked up the ball
