DYou are somebody that I don’t know
but you’re takin’ shots at me like it’s a sport
and I’m just like “Gman… it’s 7 a.m.”
DSay it in the street, that’s a knock-out,
but you say it in a tweet, that’s a cop-out,
and I’m just like, “Ghey… are you okay?”
And DI ain’t tryin’ to mess with your self-expression
but I’ve learned the lesson that stressin’
and obsessin’ ’bout somebody else is no Gfun…
And Asnakes and stones never broke my bones
so, Doh-oh (oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh)
you need to calm Gdown… you’re bein’ too loud.
And I’m just like Doh-oh, (oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh)
you need to just Gstop… like can you just not
step on my gown? You need to calm down. D
DYou are somebody that we don’t know
but you’re comin’ at my friends with your insults,
why are you Gmad… when you could be glad? (you could be glad)
DSunshine on the street at the parade
but you would rather be in the dark ages
makin’ that Gsign… must’ve taken all night.
DYou just need to take several seats and then try to restore the peace
and control your urges to scream about all the people you Ghate…
Cuz Ashade never made anybody less fake
so, Doh-oh (oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh)
you need to calm Gdown… you’re bein’ too loud.
And I’m just like Doh-oh, (oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh)
you need to just Gstop… like can you just not
step on this gown? You need to calm Ddown.
And we see you… over there… on the internet,
D comparin’… all the girls… who are crushin’ it.
G But we figured you out… we all know now,
we all got crowns – you need to calm down.
Oh-oh (oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh)
you need to calm Gdown, (you need to calm down)
you’re bein’ too loud. (you’re being too loud)
And I’m just like Doh-oh, (oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh)
you need to just Gstop, (can you stop?)
like can you just not… step on our gowns?
You need to calm Ddown.
