Lyrics and translation
Original
Spoiled brat inherits empire
Dances around funeral pyre
Spent the golden age in a gilded cage
'Til he dropped out of the human race
See, he built it with his own two hands
And a couple mill' he got from dad
Now the whole damn thing is crumbling
You had everything, everything, everything, nothing, and
All I know that you had to go
From the black into the brown
Hit bottom now
Hooray, hooray, hooray
Bounce from the bottom back to the top
Get your cape, put on your crown
You got 'em now
Hooray, hooray, hooray
Hooray, hooray, hooray
Hooray, hooray, hooray
See, I dealt with what you're dealing with
Such assistant-level shit
That's a dealbreaker for me
Got a zero-tolerance policy
Feeling frowned-upon, looked-down-upon
In your hand, but now it's gone
It's all that you will ever be
You had everything, everything, everything, nothing, and
All my life spent on the losing side
Under the bottom line
Somehow I feel all right
All I know that you had to go
From the black into the brown
Hit bottom now
Hooray, hooray, hooray
Bounce from the bottom back to the top
Get your cape, put on your crown
You got 'em now
Hooray, hooray, hooray
Hooray, hooray, hooray
Hooray, hooray, hooray
Hooray, hooray, hooray
Hooray, hooray, hooray
Hooray, hooray, hooray
Hooray, hooray, hooray
Hooray, hooray, hooray
Hooray, hooray, hooray
