I'm Broke But I've Got Some SICK TATTOOS

I got this new beat right in my ear
Sat here tryna block out every single peer- pressure
And it's everything I don't like
Come on have a drink
Go on have a smoke
Go and give your number to that funny bloke
But I'm gay yo
But I'm too shy to say so

Sat at the bar with nothing but an orange juice
Feel like everybody is a duck, duck, I'm the goose
Well I'm not a drinker
Made the choice to be straight edge
They call me a hipster
But I don't care what they call me
Even if they try to fool me
Always felt like I'm falling
Nothing I can be controlling
Yes I am lonely

Never found a group of friends that seem to wanna know me
I was never in with the in
I never found the out
Don't know where to begin what if they found me out?
And I tell myself that I'm gonna be confident
Leave the shy Lyd behind and be like no-one else
But my anxiety won't let me be who I wanna be
Outgoing in society
Try to escape the irony
Of everything that I have been
And everything I try to be
So no I'm not cool
But I never claimed to be
Would never be cruel
No that just isn't like me
I'm a loser and proud
But look who's got the crowd

And I would take you for dinner but I'm broke for shit
If you wanna be my girl then let's just go with it
But if you're looking for something fancy
Babe, you know that isn't like me
But I'll buy you a Coke and we'll go watch Netflix
Make stupid jokes so we don't forget this
Play my favourite Folk on Spotify for you
Cause I'm broke babe
At least I've got some sick tattoos

Cause I spend every last penny that I've got on ink
Never slow down long enough to stop and think
And you probably deserve someone better off than me
Cause my mind's a mess and I'm falling to my knees
I've been fighting with a peace sign in a battle that I'm losing
Didn't want to get political but who am I kidding?
I'm socialist, leftist, feminist, corbynite
I'm queer and I'm proud and I'm ready to get down tonight
Maybe you could call me just an optimist
But I feel like that facism is hitting a miss
And I could rap for hours about the Tories and austerity
And how they are destroying civilised society
But maybe I could do something more constructive
You've gotta use your talent to be most productive
So I'll lay out a plan to save the world using what I can do
Goal: Fix the climate
Resources: I can solve a rubix cube?

But I would take you for dinner but I'm broke for shit
If you wanna be my girl then let's just go with it
But if you're looking for something fancy
Babe, you know that isn't like me
But I'll buy you a Coke and we'll go watch Netflix
Make stupid jokes so we don't forget this
Play my favourite Folk on Spotify for you
Cause I'm broke, Babe
At least I've got some sick tattoos

At least I've got some sick tattoos
So I'll be doing what I wanna do
And if you decide to choose me
Maybe we could see a movie

Or I'll buy you a Coke and we'll go watch Netflix
Make stupid jokes so we don't forget this
Play my favourite Folk on Spotify for you
Cause I'm broke babe
At leas I've got some sick
Tattoos
