I bet it goes like this

Pinky up, up

Pinky up, up

Pinky up, up

Pinky up, up

Pinky up

One day soon the world's gonna end, I'm gonna

Make out with my new bestest friends, I wanna

Live large right before it all burns down

Up, up

Pinky up

Go hard like we're robbing the Louvre, we Mona

Lisa with a cute attitude, I wanna

Get high right before we're in the ground

Ooh, we're screaming from cloud nine

No one could touch us if they tried

Ooh, but it's a state of mind

I bet it goes like this

Pinky up, up

Pinky up, up

Pinky up, up

Pinky up, up

Us against the world, shaking ass in the parking lot

If we get arrested, haha, baby, laugh it off

I love you, you love me, we bat shit, oui oui

And I'd kill 'em for you if it got that deep

Fancy is a frequency, a mind of

Delusion philosophy, I kinda

Know nothing, just like Socrates

"The only true wisdom is in knowing you know nothing"

Ooh, we're screaming from cloud nine

No one could touch us if they tried

Ooh, but it's a state of mind

I bet it goes like this

Pinky up, up

Pinky up, up

Pinky up, up

Pinky

One, two, one, two, three, four

Pinky up, up

Pinky up, up

Pinky up, up

Pinky up, up

Pinky
