[Intro]
Ha!
Step in the pit
Watch it burn
[Verse 1]
Pop wears glitter like a wound
All dressed up, still dead on cue
Country cries in pickup dust
Same old lie, same polished rust
Rap talks hard, then folds like lace
Trendy mouths with borrowed face
EDM counts down to a drop
Then falls apart and calls it hot
Every genre begging for a crown
I spit on the whole damn town
[Pre-Chorus]
Tick, tick, choke
Break your pose
Soft as bone
I know, I know
[Chorus]
Modern music is a joke
Modern music is a joke
You call that fire?
I call it smoke
Modern music is a joke
[Verse 2]
Love-song sugar, factory-made
Plastic tears in a pretty cage
Folk with a filter, safe and sweet
A lullaby with tired feet
Emo kids with perfect pain
Same black shirt, same fake rain
Jazz in circles, lost in smoke
Punk got sold and still won’t choke
Every scene is dressed to please
I bring the teeth, I bring the disease
[Pre-Chorus]
Tick, tick, choke
Break your pose
Soft as bone
I know, I know
[Chorus]
Modern music is a joke
Modern music is a joke
You call that fire?
I call it smoke
Modern music is a joke
[Bridge]
Bow to the shrine of cheap applause
Clap for the hollow, praise the frauds
I laugh as the dead sound smile
Then I rip it out in style
[Solo]
[Arpeggiated guitar solo]
[Verse 3]
Neat little hooks for vacant heads
Feed the weak what the algorithm said
Clean little lies in perfect time
Packaged trash with a catchy rhyme
But I came feral, I came mean
Sharp as steel and born unclean
If you want cute, go buy a toy
I came to crush your little joy
[Final Chorus]
Modern music is a joke
Modern music is a joke
You call that fire?
I call it smoke
Modern music is a joke
Modern music is a joke
I laugh, I bite
I watch it choke
