I'm tired, and tired, and tired, and tired of the circumstance
I'm tired, and tired, and tired of doing a snake dance
So you don't bite me, you don't bite me
Flattered that you like me
Buy me some more nice things

I would try to walk away, you'd say

Don't forget where you came from
Don't forget where your name's from
Don't you wanna be like me?
Don't you wanna be like me?

I tried, and tried, and tried to put the dog down
I kicked, and hit, and spit, and shot down at the ground
But he still chased me, bowl long empty
A piece of me to slow him down
Hungry for my bones now

I would try to walk away, you'd say

Don't forget where you came from
Don't forget where your name's from
Don't you wanna be like me?
Don't you wanna be like me?

Don't forget where you came from
Don't forget where your name's from
Don't you wanna be like me?
Don't you wanna be like me?

I wanna, I wanna, I wanna, I wanna be mean now
No one hurt me, I'm a well-oiled machine now
I'm gonna bring you with me, one who built me
No place here for my body now, no time left to slow me down

I would try to walk away, you'd say

Don't forget where you came from
Don't forget where your name's from
Don't you wanna be like me?
Don't you wanna be like me?
