I'm The Upsetter
Why are you so gravelicious, yeah-he-yeah-hy
Why are you so covetous, yeah-he-yeah-hy
Everything you want for yourself
And you think of no one else
Why are you so red-eyed
Why can't you satisfy
You take people for fool, yeah-he-yeah-hy
And use them as a tool, yeah-he-yeah-hy
But I am the avenger
You'll never get away from me
I am the upsetter
Suffer, you're born to suffer
I told you once to run, yeah-he-yeah-hy
But you take it all for fun, yeah-he-yeah-hy
Now it will be tough
For you it will be rough
I promise you the right and the left
And there'll be the uppercut
I am the avenger
This is the upsetter
Suffer, you're born to suffer
You'll never get away from me
I am the avenger
You'll never get away from me
