"Chinese Fork Tie"

Said you were
10-feet-tall and bulletproof
Armored character
Makes it hard to move
Here's an impartial overview

At the bottom
They all want proof
And at the top
No one's making room
So brace yourself and then accelerate
Sure you'll get there soon

(You can live)
I watch you work
(Live like this)
I watch you work
(This is it. Deviant)

(You can live)
I watch you work
(Live like this)
I watch you work
(This is it.)

(Hey!)
Yeah, take the big man down
Fork tie
Chump crown

I am wide-eyed
Waiting on the truth
But I'm thinking of ways to silence you

Close-at-hand (You can live)
Commonplace and cruel (Live like this)
Rude joke (This is it)
Jury-rigged tool (This is it)

(Hey!)
Yeah, take the big man down
Fork tie
Chump crown
