[Verse 1]
They've k**ed metal twice, but it'll never really die
It's kind of like a zombie or even that Jesus guy
So grab your friends, some instruments, and start a metal band
Sing about d**h, Egypt, and wizards, or rip off Ayn Rand
We're coming to the end of the first verse
Then comes the breakdown, a pretty chorus, then the second verse
I know I just rhymed verse with verse
That's because I'm so metal, b**h, where's your f**in' purse?
[Breakdown]
Breakdown
In this part, it sounds like the singer wants to fight
Breakdown
Don't be scared, the chorus will make it all alright
[Chorus]
Metal by numbers, 1-2-3
Follow these rules and you'll see
Cookie monster vocals or yell like a wookie
Metal by numbers, cookie-cookie-cookie
Metal by numbers, 1-2-3
This is the gay part with melody
Even a baby could do it, just give it a try
Sounds like Maiden or Metallica or Every Time I Die
[Verse 2]
I have to change my voice to make me sound mad
If I tried to sing clean, it would make your ears sad
This is the gang vocal and I'll tell you the truth
It's four sweaty dudes yelling in a booth
Music really s**s now, poseurs and trendy fools
But compared to Coldplay or Nelly, even sh**ty metal rules
It's metal by numbers, it's not arithmetic
John Mayer, Kelly Clarkson, they all can s** my penis
[Breakdown]
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
Here it comes
C'mon
Alright
Are you almost ready?
Damn it, I missed it
This is the mosh part, so mosh
Or don't, it's your call
I'm too old for it
I just stand in the back and try not to get hit
Watch out for the shirtless white trash guys
They'll punch you and they stink
And look out for the screamo kids trying out their karate kicks
Dude, you look gay-tarded
And look out for the giant Mexican guy, he looks really pissed
I wish everybody would put their shirts back on, it's kind of gross
Is this part still going?
Here comes the lead break
Nope, not yet
Oh, here it comes, here it comes
Go
[Guitar Solo: Russ Parrish]
[Chorus]
