I knew this guy, his name was Nico
_____
At school he spoke little, I thought he was cool
_____
One morning I was going to the bank with mom
_____
And I saw Nico walk in and pull down his balaclava
_____
Good morning folks, this is a robbery
_____
I'm the last person you'll ever see
_____
Unless you lie face down on all fours
_____
And it'll be quick and painless like a quickie
_____
Leave your wallets on the floor
_____
Along with gold and chains, I love all that
_____
And if somebody thinks he's a hero or a Jedi knight
_____
I'll make him crawl for life like a centipede
_____
Now I'm gonna walk by slowly, you see?
_____
Be good doggies, nothing's happening
_____
You're obedient, you little ones
_____
Whoever's got money and doesn't spend it's a thief, he said
_____
Now I wanna talk to the manager!
_____
Unless he wants to leave his son all alone, alone
_____
With the poor wife crying with him
_____
Hello manager, my name's Nico
_____
It's a pleasure to meet people doing their job
_____
I wanted to tell you you really disgust me
_____
And that your daughter's a b*tch, she'd suit a blind man
_____
But let's talk business, yeah, let's talk business
_____
You're my slave now, obey or I'll shoot
_____
If you come back without emptying the tills
_____
Your head pops off and I'll do a bicycle kick with it
_____
I chose evil because good was banal
_____
God gave me a gun that's easy to handle
_____
Maybe some people have to pay
_____
Maybe I ain't afraid to shoot
_____
And it probably won't change anything
_____
I get it on my own, I think I'm smart
_____
But I hear these voices and these fixations kick in
_____
A day in the life of Nico, Ulysses
_____
You're bleeding, star? Nobody pities you
_____
Wanna know why I smoke, why I fast?
_____
Wanna watch a video of a bullied kid online?
_____
Wanna know what those guys were thinking
_____
Wanna know? You don't wanna know, but I talk
_____
You're lucky they don't pay me to do it
_____
I'm a woodworm, an armed talking cricket
_____
And now say bye to your tanned friends from Monte Carlo
_____
Wanna know why people have no ideas anymore?
It's because they want it that way
_____
And you know what's the funny thing?
_____
It's that I'm talking about them, the question's 'them who?'
_____
Why am I here? To try violence
_____
On your skin, because civilization is decadence
_____
And this is just an act of intellectual freedom
_____
Freedom is telling people what they don't wanna hear
_____
And before coming in, I called the cops
_____
I gotta do everything myself, even a shootout
And you remember that dude from
_____
Fifteen minutes and we make history!
_____
God protect my enemies, they need it
_____
Every day I'll be bigger, don't stop the dream
_____
Just give me the strength to steal an iris
_____
Because whoever's winning now will look invincible
_____
I made this record just to eat you alive
_____
And my name's so big that even saying it is a threat
_____
I throw gold and fame into the water
_____
I die loving the system but the system loves me too
_____
I chose evil because good was banal
_____
God gave me a gun that's easy to handle
_____
Maybe some people have to pay
_____
Maybe I ain't afraid to shoot
_____
And it probably won't change anything
_____
I get it on my own, I think I'm smart
_____
But I hear these voices and these fixations kick in
_____
A day in the life of Nico, Ulysses
