    I could have kept my head down
    I might have kept my mouth shut
    I should have held my own
    You lead a horse to water and watch him drown

    You're only as big as your battles
    Rattle my cage with your shadow
    I'm a bantam weight with a mouthful of feathers
    Don't you know that what comes around goes around

    I'm not that easy, I am not your horse to water
    I hold my breath I come around, round, round

    Don't darken my doorstep again
    You're mixing up living in chin, chin
    You're mixing up lose with win, win
    You lead a horse to water and you watch him drown

    You stumble on glass top table
    TV's chewing shock gone cable
    Pump me up a beanstalk fable
    And I'll call this entertainment
    'Cause Humpty's falling down

    I'm not that easy, I am not your horse to water
    I hold my breath I come around, round, round

    Pick a fight an ultra buzzy bubble
    Friday night f****** fried up pub crawl
    Bantam-weight with a mouthful of feathers
    Don't you know that what comes around goes around

    I'm not that easy, I am not your horse to water
    I hold my breath I come around, round, round
    It's not that easy, I am not your horse to water
    I hold my breath, I come around, round, round

    It's going down, down, down this run around, round, round
    Is bound to pound the daylights out of you
