Thriller 2 – “Better than the original!” – NY Times – August 1st, 2008
Thriller 2 – As told to Vice Grip:
In the back with the windows down
In the woods on the dirty ground
On your knees in the dead of night
I can feel your appetite
Looking good with them bottoms on
But take ‘em off, it’s like an atom bomb
Heatin’ up, there’s the fire alarm
Get you off and bring down the barn
Girl I know you’ve got a man
And I know that he’s the singer in a local band
But they’re not that good and his notes are flat
So baby time to upgrade to a royal class
The king is dead, now we’re the kings
With our copy/paste stolen old melodies
Well it’s better than the first, the reviews are in
You better get with me while the people sing:
“Vice Grip is the best, you see!”
“They are the kings of pop in nine foreign countries”
“Vice Grip has returned, you see!”
“They have received the crown, we wish them prosperity!”
YEAH, Yeah, yeah, YEAH!
In his room I can touch you soft
Or in his car with the auto-tune off
We can do what it is U lyke
Cuz I can feel your appetite
Looking good with them wide-legs on
I’m only kidding you look like my mom
I’ll take you shopping if you’ll be my girl
So “let it rock” and “welcome to the world”
Girl I know you’ve got a man
And I know that he’s the singer in a local band
But he’s ugly as sin and his songs are crap
Well, baby you’re in luck because Vice Grip’s back (Alright!)
The king is dead, now we’re the kings
With our copy/paste stolen old melodies
Well it’s better than the first, the reviews are in
You better get with me while the people sing:
“Vice Grip is the best, you see!”
“They are the kings of pop in nine foreign countries”
“Vice Grip has returned, you see!”
“They have received the crown, we wish them prosperity!”
If you ever see yourself with any man you think better than me
Well you should pinch yourself to wake up from that awful, untrue dream
Cuz Vice Grip is the greatest band the world has ever freaking seen
(Let me dry your tears tonight)
(I will put the night inside you &)
The king is dead, now we’re the kings
With our copy/paste stolen old melodies
Well it’s better than the first, the reviews are in
You better get with me while the people sing:
“Vice Grip is the best, you see!”
“They are the kings of pop in nine foreign countries”
“Vice Grip has returned, you see!”
“They have received the crown, we wish them prosperity!”
“Hun, come in here, Cucci Mathers is on TV! No, they’re making them the new ‘kings of pop’!”
