"NEPO BABY" lyrics
Hope you all had a lot of fun
Hanging out at the rock show
Sipping champagne in the front row
Guess my invitation got lost in the post again
I know it's not anybody's fault
Your last name is a curse
Your clever daddy did it all first
But your red carpet twirl in your Gucci makes it worse
And I'm not gonna lie, if I had it
I'd do the same
Cos you're not gonna wanna do a 9 to 5
With your name
After all, you went to a school
That sets up a dream that we buy like fools
So we scrape and we claw for a life of maybes
Looking up at nepo babies...
(What the fuck?)
Don't you know I was meant to be
Born into a dynasty
Have all my dreams laid out for me
I wish I was a nepo baby
Where all the doors are open wide
Achieve my goals in record time
Who gives a fuck about having pride?
I wish I was a nepo baby
Gonna hear a lot of people say
That I'm just jealous
Well yeah, I'm fucking jealous!
And I can't relate to anyone who truthfully says they're not
So tell me that it's not their fault
And what else can they do?
But they don't give a fuck about you!
And this song isn't gonna change a god damned thing
So where's the harm in letting me sing cos
Don't you know I was meant to be
Born into a dynasty
Have all my dreams laid out for me
I wish I was a nepo baby
Where all the doors are open wide
Achieve my goals in record time
Who gives a fuck about having pride?
I wish I was a nepo baby
Born across the starting line
I wouldn't mind if they didn't just whine
I'm not the voice of my generation
But someone sure is and you'll never see them
Make mistakes and buy them off
Cos the system works but not for us
Hopes and dreams don't come for free
I wish I was a nepo baby...
