(Hee-ha-ha-ha)
Put your hands up 'cause I won't (yeah-eah-eah)
Raise a glass up 'cause I won't (yeah-eah-eah)
Get your ass up 'cause I won't
I must've missed the hype
But maybe that's the way I feel
(Hello, hello, hello)
Hello, how you doin'? Am I talkin' too fast?
I'm runnin' on adrenaline and one-hour naps
'Cause I do what you tell me to and do it to death
Do it death (yeah-eah-eah)
Acapulco, tel aviv or maybe japan
And pretty people yell at me to follow the dance
So I do what you tell me to and do it to death
But I can't do this shit again
Put your hands up 'cause I won't (right on time)
Raise a glass up 'cause I won't (my, oh, my)
Get your ass up 'cause I won't (I won't)
I must've missed the hype
But maybe that's the way I feel
Put your hands up 'cause I won't (right on time)
I'm not here 'cause you say so (my, oh, my)
Get your ass up 'cause I won't (I won't)
I must've missed the hype
But maybe that's the way I feel
That's the way I feel
(I don't, I don't, I don't)
I don't got a body like I see in the press
So I got too depressed and put some press in my chest
And now I look impressive with a couple of pecs
Just like my friends (yeah-eah-eah)
So welcome back and take a breath
You've come to life, you're bored to death
So welcome back and take a breath
You've come to life but I digress
Put your hands up 'cause I won't (right on time)
Raise a glass up 'cause I won't (my, oh, my)
Get your ass up 'cause I won't (I won't)
I must've missed the hype
But maybe that's the way I feel
Put your hands up 'cause I won't (right on time)
I'm not here 'cause you say so (my, oh, my)
Get your ass up 'cause I won't (I won't)
I must've missed the hype but maybe that's the way I feel
That's the way I feel
So welcome back and take a breath
You've come to life, you're bored to death
So welcome back and take a breath
You've come to life, you're bored to death
So welcome back
Acapulco, tel aviv or maybe japan (and take a breath)
And pretty people yell at me to follow the dance (you've come to life, you're bored to death)
So I do what you tell me to and do it to death (so welcome back and take a breath)
But I can't do this shit again
Put your hands up 'cause I won't (right on time)
Raise a glass up 'cause I won't (my, oh, my) (I won't)
Get your ass up 'cause I won't (I won't)
I must've missed the hype
But maybe that's the way I feel
Put your hands up 'cause I won't (right on time)
I'm not here 'cause you say so (my, oh, my)
Get your ass up 'cause I won't (I won't)
I must've missed the hype but maybe that's the way I feel
That's the way I feel
