"O YA" lyrics

"O YA"

O ya you're telling me tall tales hu?
Using counterfeit dollar bills hu?
Dead land is no land to die for
Na na na na na na na na na
Oh ya they poison and plunder
Plot twist
Danny wake up from your slumber
Pecos Bill rode off on his tornado
While the media rewrites and reviews, rotten tomatoes

Oh
Oh
Oh
YA
Take matter into your own hands

Oh ya
The bite is the blunder
Couldn't kick it and the habit took you under
Fools gold fools the innocent and the blind
Ya it's harder to be heard if you've already made your mind up
Listen closely we're not even mostly there
If Humpty Dumpty had a chair
Then we wouldn't have ended up in need of the kings horses and all the kings men
Cleaning up the whole heap cause of what the king said

Oh
Oh
Oh
YA
Take matter into your own hands
Take matter into your own hands
Break pattern
Put it in motion
Take matter into your own hands
Break pattern

Oh ya
Can somebody turn this song down?
It's too loud and it doesn't feel like the boys now
Oh Lord have they finally lost their heads?
Is it clever? Is it corny? Are they daft?
Oh they're dead to me

Oh ya I'm feeling a little Monte Cristo
Cooped up for too long in this global lazaretto
Everybody feels this way
Everybody feels the pain and the rules have changed
Never gonna be the same in a good way
It could change in a good way
