Lyrics

Bang

[Intro]

Bang, bang, bang, the bigger, the better

Bang, bang, bang, the bigger, the better

Bang, bang, bang, the bigger, the better

Bang, bang, bang, the bigger, the better

[Verse 1]

You ain't a baby no more, baby

You ain't no bigger than before, baby

I'll rub that cheap black off your lips, baby

So take a swallow as I spit, baby

[Chorus]

As a fuck, son, you sucked

As a fuck, son, you sucked

As a fuck, son, you sucked

As a fuck, son, you sucked

As a fuck, son, you sucked

As a fuck, son, you sucked

As a fuck, son, you sucked

As a fuck, son, you sucked

[Verse 2]

My skin tonight is a-blazing

But I don't think you're my type

What I need tonight's the real thing, yeah

I need the real thing tonight

[Chorus]

As a fuck, son, you sucked

As a fuck, son, you sucked

As a fuck, son, you sucked

As a fuck, son, you sucked

As a fuck, son, you sucked

As a fuck, son, you sucked

As a fuck, son, you sucked

As a fuck, son, you sucked

[Breakdown]

The bigger, the better

Bang, bang, bang

The bigger, the better

[Bridge]

Yeah

Yeah, yeah, yeah

Oh, oh, c'mon, oh-oh

Yeah, yeah, yeah

[Outro]

What I need tonight is the real thing, yeah

I need the real thing tonight

Yeah, yeah, yeah

Yeah, yeah, oh, oh, oh

Come on now, hey, yeah
