lyrics
12 years old already 6 foot 3
lunchbag won’t fit on his knee
can’t take the bus so he hitches a ride
here comes a 2 door with an absurdist inside
soon enough the giant drops out
no parsian countryside could ever be as stout
the whole world’s André’s once he learns to be the star
the villain, the drinker, the little boy over turning a car
IF All the world loves a babyface, then André’s one
IF All the world loves a heel, then André’s one, André’s the best
He knew he didn’t have the luxury of time
André’s living now and behind the sly smile
everyone’s story paints him so grand
but the sad underpinning’s get’s out of hand
2 bottles of vodka make him a hero to some
but what all the booze was masking may have never come
and he may be remembered as the giant, the best of both worlds they say
but lives even longer when a Shepard tells us to obey
I’m not gonna break kayfabe
let him sleep it off in the hall
lunchbag won’t fit on his knee
can’t take the bus so he hitches a ride
here comes a 2 door with an absurdist inside
soon enough the giant drops out
no parsian countryside could ever be as stout
the whole world’s André’s once he learns to be the star
the villain, the drinker, the little boy over turning a car
IF All the world loves a babyface, then André’s one
IF All the world loves a heel, then André’s one, André’s the best
He knew he didn’t have the luxury of time
André’s living now and behind the sly smile
everyone’s story paints him so grand
but the sad underpinning’s get’s out of hand
2 bottles of vodka make him a hero to some
but what all the booze was masking may have never come
and he may be remembered as the giant, the best of both worlds they say
but lives even longer when a Shepard tells us to obey
I’m not gonna break kayfabe
let him sleep it off in the hall
