My gun is real small
It fits inside my eye
I don't walk, I crab-crawl
And I don't want to fly
I haven't had a job in weeks
My resume is looking bleak
I can no longer brag about high school
SAT score samples too
They will never see my face
Samurai, samurai
I'm tryin' real hard
I'm tryin' real hard to try
♪
I'm haunted by musashi that my parents sent to bash my guitar
Haunted by fantasies that got me through the seventh grade
I never flew away to LA, so I can't complain
But New York feels like preschool
And I want more of the same
They will never see my face
Samurai, samurai
I'm tryin' real hard

Delicious, baby
The army recruiter's on the line
But maybe, maybe
Maybe you'll call me back in time
Four skinny boys will flank my back
You'll sink beneath the martial stack
You'll know I know you bought my album
Online distribution
They will never see my face
Samurai, samurai
I'm tryin' real hard
I'm tryin' real hard to try
♪
I'll practice my swordsmanship
While you practice your aim
I'll fight through press releases
While you fight through purple rain
I've never been in love
But I love it all so badly
And if you think you can gloom it up
Then you will never have me
They will never see my face
