Keep drinkin' coffee, stare me down across the table 00:07
While I look outside 00:12
So many things I'd say, if only I were able 00:15
But I just keep quiet and count the cars that pass by 00:19
You've got opinions, man, we're all entitled to 'em 00:24
But I never asked 00:28
So let me thank you for your time 00:31
And try to not waste any more of mine 00:33
Get out of here fast 00:36
I hate to break it to you, babe 00:39
But I'm not drowning 00:43
There's no one here to save 00:46
Who cares if you disagree? 00:48
You are not me 00:51
Who made you king of anything? 00:53
So, you dare tell me who to be? 00:56
Who died and made you king of anything? 00:56
01:03
You sound so innocent 01:12
All full of good intent 01:14
Swear you know best 01:16
But you expect me to 01:20
Jump up on board with you 01:22
And ride off into your delusional sunset 01:24
I'm not the one who's lost 01:29
With no direction, oh 01:31
But you'll never see 01:33
You're so busy makin' maps 01:36
With my name on them in all caps 01:38
You got the talkin' down 01:41
Just not the listening 01:43
And who cares if you disagree? 01:44
You are not me 01:47
Who made you king of anything? 01:50
So, you dare tell me who to be? 01:52
Who died and made you king of anything? 01:54
02:00
All my life, I've tried 02:03
To make everybody happy while I 02:06
Just hurt and hide 02:09
Waitin' for someone to tell me 02:14
It's my turn to decide 02:17
02:22
Who cares if you disagree? 02:27
You are not me 02:31
Who made you king of anything? 02:32
So, you dare tell me who to be? 02:35
Who died and made you king of anything? 02:35
Oh, who cares if you disagree? 02:43
You are not me 02:46
Who made you king of anything? 02:48
So, you dare tell me who to be? 02:51
Who died and made you king of anything? 02:54
Lemme hold your crown, babe 03:04

Lyrics & Translation

[English]

Keep drinkin' coffee, stare me down across the table
While I look outside
So many things I'd say, if only I were able
But I just keep quiet and count the cars that pass by
You've got opinions, man, we're all entitled to 'em
But I never asked
So let me thank you for your time
And try to not waste any more of mine
Get out of here fast
I hate to break it to you, babe
But I'm not drowning
There's no one here to save
Who cares if you disagree?
You are not me
Who made you king of anything?
So, you dare tell me who to be?
Who died and made you king of anything?

You sound so innocent
All full of good intent
Swear you know best
But you expect me to
Jump up on board with you
And ride off into your delusional sunset
I'm not the one who's lost
With no direction, oh
But you'll never see
You're so busy makin' maps
With my name on them in all caps
You got the talkin' down
Just not the listening
And who cares if you disagree?
You are not me
Who made you king of anything?
So, you dare tell me who to be?
Who died and made you king of anything?

All my life, I've tried
To make everybody happy while I
Just hurt and hide
Waitin' for someone to tell me
It's my turn to decide

Who cares if you disagree?
You are not me
Who made you king of anything?
So, you dare tell me who to be?
Who died and made you king of anything?
Oh, who cares if you disagree?
You are not me
Who made you king of anything?
So, you dare tell me who to be?
Who died and made you king of anything?
Lemme hold your crown, babe
