Blah!

I was born in a messed up century

My favorite flavored treats are raspberry amphetamines

I bought a car, Beretta age 16

I brush my teeth with bleach 'cause I ain't got time for cavities

My daddy put a gun to my head

Said, "If you kiss a boy I'm gonna shoot you dead"

So I tied him up with gaffer tape and locked him in the shed

Then I went out to the garden and I fucked my best friend

'Cause my high hopes are getting low

Because these people are so old

The way they think about it all

If I tried I would never know

My high hopes are getting low

But I know I'll never be alone

It's alright, we'll survive

'Cause parents ain't always right

Ay-i-yi-i-yi-i-ya

Ay-i-yi-i-yi-i-ya

Ay-ya-ya-ya-ya-ya-ya

Ay-i-yi-i-yi-i-ya

Ay-i-yi-i-yi-i-ya

Ay-ya-ya-ya-ya-ya-ya

Drop a toaster in my bath

Watch my mom and dad laugh

See a thousand volts go through the son they wish they never had

They told me casual affection leads to sexual infection

But it's hard to get an erection

When you're so used to rejection

Yeah, the teacher fucked the preacher

But then he had to leave her

Had to wash away the sins

Of a male cheerleader

Hi, nice to meet ya, got nothing to believe in

So let me know when my breathing stops

'Cause my high hopes are getting low

Because these people are so old

The way they think about it all

If I tried I would never know

My high hopes are getting low

But I know I'll never be alone

It's alright, we'll survive

'Cause parents ain't always right

Ay-i-yi-i-yi-i-ya

Ay-i-yi-i-yi-i-ya

Ay-ya-ya-ya-ya-ya-ya

Ay-i-yi-i-yi-i-ya

Ay-i-yi-i-yi-i-ya

Ay-ya-ya-ya-ya-ya-ya

Tick-tock, stop the clock

Because I get the feeling that I'm gonna get shot

Tick-tock, stop the clock

Because I get the feeling that I'm gonna get shot

My high hopes are getting low

Because these people are so old

The way they think about it all

If I tried I would never know

My high hopes are getting low

But I know I'll never be alone

It's alright, we'll survive

'Cause parents ain't always right

Ay-i-yi-i-yi-i-ya

Ay-i-yi-i-yi-i-ya

Ay-ya-ya-ya-ya-ya-ya

Ay-i-yi-i-yi-i-ya

Ay-i-yi-i-yi-i-ya

Ay-ya-ya-ya-ya-ya-ya

Fuchiki enjoyed the song but it also made her a bit worried. She turned around and looked at us.

"Who thought of this song?" She asked.

"That would be me," I smiled, raising my hand.

"Did it actually, y'know?" She questioned.

"What? Oh, no, no, no, my dad was the best. He never threatened me or hated me or anything like that. I just made the song for other reasons." I explained, reassuring that it wasn't true what the song was talking about.

"Just out of curiosity, who was your father?" Fuchiki asked.

I gave her an unsure look and then looked at the others.

"His name was Igneel.." I answered.

"Igneel? Quite an interesting name," she said

I nodded and then looked over at Metalhead and the others.

"Your music is quite good, how about this, you allow me to be your publisher. You'll get 60% and I'll get 40%?" She asked.

I looked back at the others and then back at Fuchiki.

"We get 70% and you get 30%." I said, crossing my arms.

Fuchiki thought for a while and then looked back at us.

"Deal," she said, putting her hand out for me to shake.

I shook her hand.

"What will your band be called?" She asked.

I gave her a look of surprise and then turned to the others.

"We never did think of a name," I said, now realizing that we never thought about it.
