"You Can Put Your Dukes Down, Stringbean" lyrics

"You Can Put Your Dukes Down, Stringbean"

You can put your dukes down, stringbean
It's not a fair fight that you gave me
Givin' them a run for their money
I think I got it summed up, honey

You can put your dukes down, stringbean
There's not a bee here that could sting me
Kicking at the hive with your bare feet
Nothing you could say could scare me

You can let your head down, stringbean
You foam from my mouth like rabies
Never should've let you bite me
I'm livin' off a tetanus IV
I can't let my head down, stringbean
I'm drowning in a thousand crises
Never met a boy quite like me
What a way to waterboard my pride, bean

We can make a snowstorm splendid
Emotional cryogenics
If it's gonna die just let it
Without a goodbye it's endless
