Lower The Difficulty Badgers On Sunday (Fire Cut)
[Start] [Intro – Glitchy Synth Chimes / Guitars Booting Up] If this was The Matrix… I would not be Neo. Absolutely not. That sounds like homework with angst and sunglasses. [Verse 1] I don’t want a prophecy I don’t want a crew I don’t want a trench coat Or a destiny tattoo I don’t need a rooftop Full of bullets in the rain I just want a settings screen Inside my tiny brain Red pill? Sniff! Blue pill? Pack it tight! Learn the whole truth Then be home by Friday night Plug me back in softly With a username disguise I’m not here to start a war I’m here to optimize [Pre-Chorus] I saw the wires I saw the code I saw the boss fight And I said, “Nope.” Give me admin Give me snacks Give me one cute way To patch the cracks [Chorus] I wanna lower the difficulty Turn the pain down, please Put the rent on easy mode And the bills on freeze I don’t need to fly I don’t need kung fu Just an infinite money code And a nap at two Lower the difficulty Let the whole screen glow I’m not trying to save the world I’m just trying to make it playable [Verse 2] I would learn the awful secret With a glitter little gasp Then crawl back in the program With a cheat sheet in my clasp No dramatic hallway flips No rebellion in the sewer I’m a bubblegum hacker With a metal heart skewer Give my friends full health bars Give my pets big beds Make the vending machines free Put confetti in my bed Set depression to tutorial Make bad luck miss twice Turn “adulting” into side quests With adorable advice [Pre-Chorus] I saw the agents I saw the guns I saw the war plot And I said, “Hard pass, hon.” Give me glitches Give me keys Give me one back door And emotional DLC [Chorus] I wanna lower the difficulty Turn the pain down, please Put the rent on easy mode And the bills on freeze I don’t need to fly I don’t need kung fu Just an infinite money code And a nap at two Lower the difficulty Let the whole screen glow I’m not trying to save the world I’m just trying to make it playable [Break – Double-Kick / Sparkle Synth Alarm] Red pill! Blue pill! Truth mode! Snooze still! Hack it! Patch it! Cute little goblin In the system with a hatchet! [Bridge – Half-Time / Heavy Guitars, Soft Vocal Stack] Maybe the truth is ugly Maybe the sky is fake Maybe the whole wide world Is a server farm mistake But if I find the password I’m not hoarding the door I’m turning down the damage For the tired and the poor No throne, no crown No chosen-one speech Just sunshine in the code And snacks within reach Love in the firewall Joy in the wires Tiny pink mercy With sugar cookie tires [Final Chorus – Bigger / Bright Synths Over Crushing Guitars] I wanna lower the difficulty Turn the pain down, please Put the rent on easy mode And the bills on freeze I don’t need to fly I don’t need kung fu Just an infinite money code And a nap at two Lower the difficulty Let the whole screen glow I’m not trying to save the world I’m just trying to make it playable [Outro – Spoken / Cute Menace] No, I will not dodge bullets. But I will dodge responsibility. And then I will responsibly redistribute the cheat codes. Eventually. ...Probably. [End]
