Hey dad, thank you very much
For being such a giant douchebag
You are everything I'll never be
Hey dad, grow a pair
And then shave off that stupid ugly mustache
'Cause basically, you're dead to me
Half of me is burning up
The other half is freezing cold
When I think of giving up
I focus on the things I can control
And I'll never gonna be like you
Eyes shut till I saw right through
Your bullshit and your lies
A monster in disguise
And I'll never gonna be like you
Hard times, but I'll make it through
The mess you left behind is for the best
Because I'll never be like you
Woah (I'm invincible)
Woah (I'm invincible)
Woah
Hey dad, thank you very much
For all the lessons that you taught me
They'll be useful when I kick your ass
So bad, by the way, mom says: Hey
And also, you're a dick, galactic conquest?
Yeah, I think I'll pass
Half of me is burning up
The other half is freezing cold
When I think of giving up
I focus on the things I can control
And I'll never gonna be like you
Eyes shut till I saw right through
Your bullshit and your lies
A monster in disguise
And I'll never gonna be like you
Hard times, but I'll make it through
The mess you left behind is for the best
Because I'll never be like you
You were everything to me till you smashed my life to pieces
When you smashed my face and left me in the dirt
But you never broke my spirit down
And I don't wanna hear about intentions
Or your selfish plans to dominate the Earth
Woah (I'm invincible)
Woah (I'm invincible)
Woah
And I'll never gonna be like you
Eyes shut till I saw right through
Your bullshit and your lies
A monster in disguise
And I'll never gonna be like you
Hard times, but I'll make it through
The mess you left behind is for the best
Because I'll never be like you
And I'll never gonna be like you
Eyes shut till I saw right through
Your bullshit and your lies, but it's alright
'Cause I'll never be like you
Woah (I'm invincible)
Woah (I'm invincible)
Woah
