Lyrics

Thrasher

[Intro]

OH! OH! OH! OH!

OH! OH! OH! OH!

[Verse 1: Pharrell]

Every once in a while there is some asshole

Giving you shit, 'cause something in his life won't fold

Usually, I'd walk away

The peace offering 'nother day

He seems not to wanna trade

So he must pay (It's inevitable, it's going down!)

[Pre-Chorus: Pharrell, (Shae)]

He's talking (Fuck him up!) at me (Fuck him up!)

Instead of (Fuck him up!) to me (Fuck him up!)

My intelligence (Fuck him up!) sat me (Fuck him up!)

But he says (Fuck him up!) he'll run through me (Fuck him up!)

[Hook: Pharrell, (Shae)]

(THRASHER!)

I'm a (THRASHER!)

I'm a (THRASHER!)

You ain't no (THRASHER!)

But I'm a (THRASHER!)

I'm a (THRASHER!)

I'm a (THRASHER!)

I'm a (THRASHER!)

I'm a...

[Verse 2: Pharrell]

Every once in a while, there's that same asshole

Trying to swing and hit, 'cause the things he can't control

And God knows what will unfurl

Either with, or without his girl

His eyebrows down, his fingers curled

Like it's his world (It's inevitable, it's going down!)

[Pre-Chorus: Pharrell, (Shae)]

He's talking (Fuck him up!) at me (Fuck him up!)

Instead of (Fuck him up!) to me (Fuck him up!)

My intelligence (Fuck him up!) sat me (Fuck him up!)

But he says (Fuck him up!) he'll run through me (Fuck him up!)

[Hook: Pharrell, (Shae)]

(THRASHER!)

I'm a (THRASHER!)

I'm a (THRASHER!)

You ain't no (THRASHER!)

But I'm a (THRASHER!)

I'm a (THRASHER!)

I'm a (THRASHER!)

I'm a (THRASHER!)

I'm a...

[Bridge: Pharrell]

Now I know the slime ball is laying out and all

But he said things that were so uncalled for

Boy, he deserved it (The boy deserved it)

And I know your his girl, but you should ride wit me

'Cause I'll show you colors that you've never seen

Peep this rocket – it's brown mixed with green (We'll be swerving!)

[Outro]

OH! OH! OH! OH!

OH! OH! OH! OH!

OH! OH! OH! OH!

OH! OH! OH! OH!

He's talking (Fuck him up!) at me (Fuck him up!)

Instead of (Fuck him up!) to me (Fuck him up!)

My intelligence (Fuck him up!) sat me (Fuck him up!)

But he says (Fuck him up!) he'll run through me (Fuck him up!)
