Lyrics

Headcase

[Chorus: Jay Schottlander & Dan Farren]

You said you wanna die with honour

You said you wanna die with pride

Put your head upon a pedestal

It's all just fuckin' lies

You said you wanna die with honour

You said you wanna die with pride

Put your head upon a pedestal

It's all just fuckin' lies

[Verse 1: Jay Schottlander, Jay Schottlander and Dan Farren]

I'm a headcase, I'm a bastard, I'm a punk

I am fearless, I'm an asshole, I'm a scrub

I tap my card on the bar

Order my drink from my seat

I'm an arrogant fuck

And I do as I please

[Chorus: Jay Schottlander & Dan Farren]

You said you wanna die with honour

You said you wanna die with pride

Put your head upon a pedestal

It's all just fuckin' lies

You said you wanna die with honour

You said you wanna die with pride

Put your head upon a pedestal

It's all just fuckin' lies

[Verse 2: Dan Farren, Dan Farren and Jay Schottlander, Jay Schottlander]

Oh, stone cold man, stone cold man

No expression on my facе

Just an attitude, I'm a waste and I say

I take my card to thе bar

Order my drink from my seat

I'm an arrogant fuck

And I do as I please

[Bridge: Jay Schottlander, Dan Farren]

I'm an arrogant fuck

I'm an arrogant fuck

I'm an arrogant fuck

I'm an arrogant fuck

I'm an arrogant fuck

I'm an arrogant fuck
