you said it was a boy that bears your name
but eighteen´s a man
I know everything they know
yes I´ll bear your name
yes I´ll wear that crown
heavy lies that thing, I know
(I will dance by myself atop my early grave, so come on mother fuckers)

here in the sun, there´s only fifteen minutes of fun
(hope we tan and hope we can burn up)
and I will stare at the eclipse just to believe it. so what?
(hope we tan and hope we can burn up)

if it wasn´t for the boy that bears your name
well you´d be the man
it´s a damn good thing you know
that there´s no shame in stepping down
as long as this boy steals the show
they said you´re nobody until someone kills you
that´s what B.I.G. said so I do too

ya, I gotta copyright
oh ya, I´m writing all the books
(I´m the record book)
copyright, I gotta copyright
(all the record books)
and tonight I´m signing all your books
(sign the record, I´m the record books)

and we, ya we can, all burn up
