How??

From Oczy Mlody2017

Written by Derek Brown, Jake Ingalls, Matt Duckworth, Michael Ivins, Nicholas Ley, Steven Drozd, Wayne Coyne

Produced by Dave Fridmann, Dennis Coyne, Michael Fridmann

Lyrics

How??

White trash rednecks, Earthworms eat the ground Legalize it, Every drug right now Are you with us? Are you burnin' out? Kill your rock n roll. Motherfuckin' hip-hop sound I tried to tell you but I don't know how!! I tried to tell you but I don't know how!! How?? How?? How?? A thousand suns are in the sky right now Let them shine now shine for just one hour I tried to tell you but I don't know how!! I tried to tell you but I don't know how!! How?? How?? How?? Back when we were young. We killed everyone If they fucked with us. With our baby guns We were young with our baby guns We were young with our baby guns A bird is singing. Singing really loud A jet is flying. Flying through a cloud.
