You never doubted it,
You're so proud of it,
?
There's no doubt of it,
You couldn't care less,
You love goodness,
You think it's endless, endless, endless,
You think it's gotta diss,
It doesn't bother us,
No, nobody know never knew about it,
And in the spotlight,
You get to sit tight,
You wanna hit that, ah, ah

Set, set that crown on the ground and-ah,
Set, set that crown on the ground and-ah,
Set, set that crown on the ground and-ah,
Set, set that crown on the ground and-ah,
Set, set that crown on the ground and-ah,
Set, set that crown on the ground and-ah,
Ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah ah-ah,
Ah, ah-ah, ah-ah,

You need to know how,
To say you'll backtrack,
Between the clear bag,
Somewhere in your habitat,
You have a little thing,
You think you're bothering,
The class is ending, ending, ending,
You never did know,
You don't wanna know,
There's another show playing in your window,
The perm'nent thought of you,
Is ? through,
You're gonna have to, have to, have to,

Set, set that crown on the ground and-ah,
Set, set that crown on the ground and-ah,
Set, set that crown on the ground and-ah,
Set, set that crown on the ground and-ah,
Set, set that crown on the ground and-ah,
Set, set that crown on the ground and-ah,
Ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah ah-ah,
Ah, ah-ah, ah-ah,

    General Comment:LYRICS FROM THE NEW VINYL INSERT | Band Official:

    you never doubted it
    your so proud of it ----- (they used the wrong your in the insert. not me.)
    you straight shouted it
    you sold out of it

    you couldn't care less
    you're like a kid yes
    you think its endless
    endless endless

    you think you started this
    it doesn't bother us
    no clue about it
    no you never knew about it

    you need the spotlight
    you need to sit tight
    you wanna real fight ah ah

    set set that crown on the ground 6x
    ah ah ah

    you need to look back
    to see your back track
    do you hear that
    someone in your habitat
    you are the real thing
    you hear the bell ring

    the class is ending ending ending

    you don't think though
    you don't wanna know
    there's another show playing in your window
    but for the better you
    it's never never through
    you're gonna have to have to have to

    you set that crown on the ground 6x
    ah ah ah

    Lyric Correction:You never doubted it
    You’re so proud of it
    You strait shouted it
    You’re so proud of it
    You couldn’t care less
    You like goodness
    You think it’s endless, endless, endless
    You think in spite of this
    It doesn’t bother us
    No clue about it, no you never knew about it
    You need the spotlight
    You need to sit tight
    You want a real fight a-ah, a-ah

    To see your backtrack
    Do you hear that?
    Someone in your habitat
    You are the real thing
    You hear the bell ring
    The class is ending, ending, ending
    You never think so
    You don’t wanna know
    There’s another show playing in your window
    Before the better you
    Is never, never through
    You’re gonna have to, have to, have to

    General Comment:I'm pretty sure the opening line is "You've got a diamond, you're so proud of it"

    Lyric Correction:Oh man, I need some sedatives. I've had this album on for hours and since I am so clearly not succinct (aimed for succinct and hit comment-vomit instead, sorry), I am just going to go ahead and repost an updated version of this, as my ears are hearing it. This is after hearing it about 30 times in one day (I'm lowballing), and it's the best I could make out. I hope it helps someone have a karaoke party or something.

    Ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah ah-ah,
    Ah, ah-ah, ah-ah [x3]

    Hey!

    You never doubted it,
    You're so proud of it,
    You straight shouted it,
    There's no doubt of it,
    You couldn't care less,
    You love goodness,
    You think it's endless, endless, endless,
    You think it's gotta dis,
    It doesn't bother us,
    No, nobody no never knew about it,
    You need the spotlight,
    You need to sit tight,
    You wanna live right, ahh, ahh,

    Set, set that crown on the ground and-ah, [x6]
    Ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah ah-ah,
    Ah, ah-ah, ah-ah,

    Hey!

    You need to double back,
    To see the back tracks,
    Between the clear path,
    Someone in your habitat,
    You have a little thing,
    You think you bother me,
    The class is ending, ending, ending,
    You never did show,
    You don't wanna know,
    There's a puppet show playing in your window,
    The perm'nent thought of you,
    Has never bothered you,
    You're gonna have to, have to, have to,

    Set, set that crown on the ground and-ah, [x6]
    Ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah ah-ah,
    Ah, ah-ah, ah-ah,

    Set, set that crown,(set set that crown) [x16]
    (ah-ah)
    Crown




    Still not sure if it's "somewhere" or "someone" in that last verse but either way I am going to go put my head in a bucket of ice.

    Lyric Correction:Also, another moment of realization: I think it's:

    You need to backtrack to a clear path
    somewhere in your habitat

    Did I mention I have insomnia? My neighbors love me. I would just edit my first post but it doesn't seem like you can do that so I apologize if I am being postaholic.

    General Comment:Ther's a PUPPETSHOW playing in your window

    Ahhhh...the caps is me having a moment of realization, not being a bitch. Seeing as I'm also correcting myself, I would hope that is implicit but ya never know, hi Internet, I come in peace.

    General Comment:P.S. "Path" instead of "bag" (as pointed out by QueenThud) sounds much more sensible. I thought it was a drug reference, what with everything being passed around in clear bags, which doesn't really make sense within the context of the general theme. A clear path within a habitat makes more sense and that was a line that was bugging me. Note to self: read comments BEFORE posting. Smarter.

    Lyric Correction:Okay so I am obsessive and have no life. That is already something I know. I also have listened to this album so many times it's RIDICULOUS, I mean really, but here is what I think the lyrics are. I just corrected the same not-finished version that's been floating around and there are still a few lines that sound iffy but anyway:

    Ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah ah-ah,
    Ah, ah-ah, ah-ah [x3]

    Hey!

    You never doubted it,
    You're so proud of it,
    You straight shouted it
    There's no doubt of it,
    You couldn't care less,
    You love goodness,
    You think it's endless, endless, endless,
    You think it's gotta diss,
    It doesn't bother us,
    No, nobody no never knew about it,
    You need the spotlight,
    You need to sit tight,
    You wanna live right, ahh, ahh,

    Set, set that crown on the ground and-ah, [x6]
    Ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah ah-ah,
    Ah, ah-ah, ah-ah,

    Hey!

    You need to know about it,
    To say you'll backtrack,
    Between the clear bag,
    Someone in your habitat,
    You have a little thing,
    You think you bother me,
    The class is ending, ending, ending,
    You never did show,
    You don't wanna know,
    There's another show playing in your window,
    The perm'nent thought of you,
    has never bothered you,
    You're gonna have to, have to, have to,

    Set, set that crown on the ground and-ah, [x6]
    Ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah ah-ah,
    Ah, ah-ah, ah-ah,

    Set, set that crown,(set set that crown) [x16]

    General Comment:Here's what I heard from the beginning part. Anyone agree?

    You never doubted it;
    you're so proud of it.
    As true as childhood,
    you're so on top of it.
    You couldn't care less; you're like cuteness.
    You think it's endless, endless, endless.
    You think in spite of this, it doesn't bother us. (?)
    No, nobody knew, no, you neverknew about it, (?)
    You need the spotlight; you need to sit tight.
    I wanna live right, ahh, ahh.
