Lyrics

Verse 1:

When I was a child, you were a god to me. I had to do what you do.

Now, you're like a Chinese wall to me. Bitch, I'll walk right through you.

This ain't the magic that you're used to.

I float a rose, hands-free, like it's Bluetooth.

My grand illusions make your parlor tricks irrelevant.

The foot of Lady Liberty is stomping on your elephant.

You failed at making movies, and you failed at making kids.

You should stick to what you're good at and lock them lips!

(Ooh!) Here's a tidbit that might drive you nuts:

I bought half your shit, and I keep it locked up!

Got the slim fingers that were built for sleights.

You're a chunky stuntman dressed in tights!

You talk shit about your hero; that ain't right,

But you can look up to me now. I know you like heights!

Verse 2:

See what they'd be watching if it wasn't for me?

I remind the world that magic is supposed to make you happy!

While you waste time proving everybody wrong,

I'm backstage getting my supermodel groove on!

You should relax. Take a private trip

To my private island; suck my private dick!

(Uh!) I'll summon up a little Halloween brunch:

Deep-fried sucker with a side of punch!
