Lyrics
[Verse 1] You, you keeping on screaming From the top of your lungs Mr. Who Gives a Shit, just shut up

Oh, the podium is all yours, go right ahead The plastic king of castle polyethylene Go on, time to be a good little pig You're worth it, oh, you're so, so

[Chorus] 'Cause when the rug gets pulled out from underneath Just embrace the fall Oh, you got spirit kid, you're number one Go on living that farce 'Cause nobody gives a fuck who you are

[Verse 2] You, I'll never have the chance that you got No, oh, I won’t dwell I'll just accept I'll be forgot, forgotten

[Chorus] 'Cause when the rug gets pulled out from underneath Just embrace the fall Oh, you got spirit kid, you're number one Go on living that farce 'Cause nobody gives a fuck who you are

[Bridge] So why are you crying? So why are you crying when you've got the world? When you've got the world to command?

[Chorus] 'Cause when the rug gets pulled out from underneath Just embrace the fall Oh, you got spirit kid, you're number one Go on living that farce 'Cause nobody, nobody, nobody, nobody, no

Nobody gives a fuck Nobody gives, nobody gives a fuck

'Cause nobody gives a fuck who you are

Background
Sanchez said, "The track is a denunciation of the loud-mouthed over-privileged sects of society, barely masked beneath a jaunty, almost poppy prog-rock instrumentation."
