   As if to say     as if to say     As if to say   he doesn't like chocolate
   He's born a liar he'll kie a liar some things will never be different 
V2 Three out of 5  three out of 5    Six out of ten   better luck next time
 Just like his dad just like his dad some things will never be different
  Hungry and dumb hungry and dumb   Queuing up for some more junk food
It's not my fault, it's not my fault They're getting so much younger
