Cartoon Villain

V1:

Walking down the street smile on my face

Blissfully unaware of what comes next

Cuz this is the part where you set your traps

Lined up the anvil, some bomb shells too

Dug the holes, fake doors leading nowhere

Gotta watch my feet with all these mouse traps

Chorus:

Feel like I'm livin' in a cartoon

Moving through these rooms

You set silly little things try to catch me up

Cuz just when it starts getting good

You go and try to push it back

Setting these traps so you can blame it on me

Feels like I'm dealing with the bad guy... on a cartoon

V2:

Walking down the street just doing me

Lost in my own world seeing what comes next

Slide past the anvil, don't make the sticks go boom

Side stepping holes, don't open any doors

Make it through the minefield without any snaps

But can't say the same thing for you

You set them up but at the end of the day

They only end up hitting you

Chorus:

Feel like I'm livin' in a cartoon

Moving through these rooms

You set silly little things try to catch me up

Cuz just when it starts getting good

You go and try to push it back

Setting these traps so you can blame it on me

Feels like I'm dealing with the bad guy... on a cartoon

Bridge:

This is the part before the credits roll

As I walk into the sunset with a smile on my face

You standing there with an ACME bruise

I'm moving on and in the end

All the traps you laid only hurt you

Closing:

Felt like I was livin' in a cartoon

Moving through those rooms

You set silly little things try to catch me up

Cuz just when it started getting good

You went and tried to push it back

Setting these traps so you could blame it on me

But just like Willie, Tom, and Sam

It all blew back, you got stuck in your own traps

And it all goes to prove,

I was dealing with the bad guy... from a cartoon
