The words are so familiar -
all the same greats, the same mistakes
It doesn`t have to be like this.

If you don`t make a friend, now
One might make you -
So learn
The gentle art of making enemies

don`t look so surprised
happy birthday...f**ker
blow that candle out,
we`re gonna kick you

(don`t say you`re not because you are)
(don`t say you`re not because you are)
(history tells us that you are)
(history tells us that you are)

All you need is just one more excuse
You put up one hell of a fight
I wanna hear your very best excuse
Never felt this much alive

your day has finally come -
so wear the hat and do the dance
and let the suit keep wearing you.

this year you`ll sit and take it
and you will like it -
it`s the gentle art of making enemies

i deserve a reward
`cause I`m the best f**k that you ever had
and if I tighten up my hole -
you may never see the light again

(there`s always an easy way out)
(there`s always an easy way out)
(you need something wet in your mouth)
(you need something wet in your mouth)

never felt this much alive
