Parodies can lie in wait too
One night, not as long ago as you might think, I woke up with part of these lyrics in my head and could not go back to sleep until I had a rough draft.
Now, upon looking through my old notebooks, I've come across this and decided what the hell, might as well share what I've got. (There were a few lines I tried to change and decided that the original words made just as much sense as anything I could come up with)
Note: due to the nature of this parody the lyrics are more literal than symbolic.
Can you identify the inspiration?
Sugar, We're Coming Down
(original tune and lyrics from "Sugar, We're Going Down" by Fall Out Boy)
Am I more than you bargained for yet?
I've been trying to kill you anytime that you come near
'Cause that's just who I am this week.
Lie on the beach down from the naval ship yard.
I'm just a pawn to your Queendom,
But you're just a mission gone wrong.
Change the war.
Stop the world.
We're always standing up
And standing on the wrong side.
We're coming down, down from the stars to the ground
And, Sugar, we're coming down fighting.
I'll be your number one with a bullet
A loaded God complex; cock it and pull it.
(Repeat)
Is this more than you bargained for yet?
Oh, don't mind me I'm watching you speak from the shadows
Waiting to bring and end to your false peace.
Isn't it messed up how I'm still failing to kill you?
I'm just a pawn to your Queendom
But you're just a mission gone wrong.
Change the war.
Stop the world.
We're always speaking out
And speaking for the wrong dream.
We're coming down, down from the stars to the ground.
And, Sugar, we're coming down fighting.
I'll be your number one with a bullet.
A loaded God complex; cock it and pull it.
(repeat)
Down, down from the stars to the ground
And Sugar, we're coming down fighting
I'll be your number one with a bullet
A loaded God complex, cock it and pull it
We're coming down, down from the stars to the ground (Take aim at myself)
(Down, down from the stars to the ground)
And Sugar, we're coming down fighting (Take back what you said)
(Down, down from the stars to the ground)
I'll be your number one with a bullet (Take aim at myself)
(Down, down from the stars to the ground)
A loaded God complex, cock it and pull it
(etc)
