Kings County II: Ballad of a So So Glo

[Verse]
Johnny was a first-world narcissist, a textbook egotist
He shut the door on the world when he was seventeen
A nihilistic inclination to resist participation
He fell in love with his own reflection
Glowing on a four-inch screen

[Pre-Chorus]
He said "If you wanna glo, then let's go"
And he was talking to himself, oh

[Chorus]
Oh oh oh oh
Here comes the ballad of another So So Glo
Another overblown ego, explosive kid
Everybody get low
Hit the deck, he's gonna blow

Oh oh oh oh
Here comes the ballad of another So So Glo
Another overblown ego, that's just what he is
Everybody get low
Hit the deck, he's gonna blow

[Verse]
He would always stay cooped up in his room
Coked up all day, playing celebrity
Taking pictures of himself is there anyone else
Out there, looking in?

And Janie said "Life is a dream that's just living on a screen"
She knows not what it means
Don't tell her she's wrong, she's just the victim
Of someone's master plan, designed by the man
And that's always the catch
So you get a neuvo retro bullshit attitude
With the hat to match while you're singing

[Chorus]
Oh oh oh oh
Here comes the ballad of another So So Glo
Another overblown ego, explosive kids
Everybody get low
They're gonna blow

Oh oh oh oh
Here comes the ballad of another So So Glo
Another overblown ego, that's just how it is
Everybody get low

[Bridge]
Last I seen him, he was suffering from rehash screen addiction
And she had an aneurysm brought on by her narcissism
And I'm standing in some parking lot
Staring into my phone, I'm so over it
I guess I am a lot more like those two than I'd like to admit

[Pre-Chorus]
If you wanna glo, then let's glo
But you're just talking to yourself, no

[Chorus]
Oh oh oh oh
Here comes the ballad of another So So Glo
Another overblown ego, explosive kids
Everybody get low
We're gonna blow

Oh oh oh oh
Here comes the ballad of another So So Glo
A ballad you and me both know, that's just how it is
Everybody get low
We're gonna blow

Oh oh oh oh
This is the ballad of another So So Glo
Another victim of his very own ego
This one's for the kids
Everybody get low, get low
Come on, get low
For the ballad of a So So Glo
