[Lyric] Punching Up (Barrett Riggins)

(Verse)
Every idiot is laughing
I try hard to hide a smile
Side-eye signalling
Can drum up a crowd
You don't have to be loud to be snarky
Though the hierarchy here is hard to see
It's me v. the state of mind a joke pokes full of holes

(Chorus)
Am I punching up?
Are you punching down?
This couple of clowns cannot recall
You're acting surprised
I'm kicking up dust
I thought it was just
Now which direction will I fall?

(Verse)
Alpha idiots are angry
I try hard to hide a smile
Goddamn doublespeak
Could pull me apart
You don't have to be smart to be smarmy
The entire army marches off the grid
And little did I realize I'd follow right behind
(Chorus)
Am I punching up?
Are you punching down?
I'm spinning around and seeing stars
Whole world is at war
Both heaven and hell
It's tricky to tell which fight is ours
Am I punching up?
Are you punching down?
This couple of clowns cannot recall
You're acting surprised
I'm kicking up dust
I thought it was just
Now which direction will I fall?
Come bandage me up
I wanna lie down
This rodeo clown has seen it all
Whole world is at war
Our mouths wouldn't shut
I busted a gut
But which direction did I fall?
