Lyrics
Cocaine and Chicken - Renée Nanzer, 2022
Verse 1:
You're sitting there with your cocaine and your chicken
When are you gonna shut up and listen?
You skip the rent and screw your friends
Then you dare to condescend.
Chorus
And I never liked you
No, I never liked you
I never liked you
But I tried, and I try.
Verse 2
You're so smart, and full of gall,
And you always thought you knew it all.
You waste your time being mean,
And then you blame it on your low self-esteem
Chorus
Verse 3
Back when we met, you'd brag that you could get
A job in a single day.
Humility is key, especially when you're a trainee
Chorus
Verse 1 Reprise
Chorus
CODA
You know you weren't always so bad
But you're so rude and it just makes me mad
You could be better (×3)
