LAX
The Kids Table Lyrics

Hey, elitists from L.A.:
Addressing the elite society of Los Angeles, California

You know who you are
Directly addressing people who fit the description

You're driving fancy cars
People are driving luxurious cars

Your allowance exceeds my rent
Their pocket money is much more than what I pay for rent

Listen to what I have to say
Asking them to pay attention to what he is going to say

Remind yourselves every day
Suggesting that they need to be reminded of certain things on a daily basis

Let's get the message on its way
Encouraging to spread the message further

Well first of all
Introducing the start of criticism

Fuck your fucking attitudes
He does not like their attitudes

How can you be so fucking rude?
Questioning their rudeness

You fucking look at me like when girls are jealous
They are giving him dirty looks

And fuck your fucking L.A. bars
He hates their Los Angeles style bars

You're all a bunch of wannabe superstars
He feels that they all have a desire to become a superstar

Yeah, fuck your fucking act
He hates their way of pretending

You're a bunch of dressed up fucking rats
He feels they are dressed up as fancy rats

You get anything you want
They can easily get anything they desire

Mommy's dressed up fucking runt
Talking about people born with privileges

You're fucking lounging in
They are relaxing in

Daddy's fucking mansion
Their father's large house

And all your fucking stupid names
Dislikes their unique and (in his opinion) stupid names

Blair and Titus, that's fucking lame
He thinks the names Blair and Titus are lame

Z-A-see does not spell Zack,
Z-A-see does not seem like a proper way to spell Zack

What the fuck is with all that?
Asking about why they spell names in such a way

You think you're so fucking impressive
He does not find them impressive

If you get your name on a fucking guest list
If they get their name on the guest list

Raise your nose to the people in line
They act superior to people waiting in line

Give the doorman a fucking high five
They give high-fives to the doorman

And then go:
Indicating the subsequent events after they get inside

Do my shoes match my shirt?
Checking if their shoes match their shirt

Does my shirt clash with my pants?
Checking if their shirt color(s) clash with their pants

Do my pants match my eyes?
Checking if their pants coordinate with their eye color

Do my eyes look good tonight?
Checking if their eyes look attractive on that particular night

Will this place be cool enough?
Checking if the place is cool enough

Your hair looks oh, so tough
Complimenting someone's hair

This looks so good for us
They feel this is a perfect fit for them

Tonight my money's gonna buy me love
They are confident that their wealth will bring them love tonight

And fuck all of your deceiving
He believes they are all deceiving

What is your fake heart fake fucking bleeding?
Questioning the authenticity of their concern for others

And all the girls you lay on your mat
Talking about the girls who stay with them

Are the same fucking girls you fucking laugh at
Carrying on about how they act condescendingly to the same girls whom they maintain intimate relationships with

And fuck your fucking fake ass world
He hates their fake world

And all your handed out fucking thrills
Referring to the pleasures they are handed that aren't earned

Some of us, we have to work hard
People have to work hard to get their rewards and do not receive things on a silver platter

Just to get our little part
Working hard just to get by

And maybe your clan lives right in Boston
Talking about their own community that lives in Boston

But my friends are fucking awesome
He is proud of his friends

And we'll keep on doing our best
Continuing to strive even though it isn't easy

Even though our lives are a mess
Their lives are a mess, but they continue to move forward

And we go:
Now discussing themselves and what they think about positively

Will this check support this tour?
Worrying about finances for the tour

Will this tour lose my job?
Worrying about the impact of the tour on their job

Without my job, where's the rent?
Worrying about paying rent without a job

Should we all just call it quits?
Wondering if it is worth continuing

And dinner dates sure cost a lot
Dinner dates are expensive

When 28 bucks is all you got
All they have is $28, which is not enough to have a lavish dinner date

And your life is at a stop
Their life has come to a standstill

And all your dreams are all self-taught
They have to be self-taught to achieve their dreams

And this is the difference between our lives
Contrasting the lives of the wealthy and average people

No wonder tonight you feel alright
People who are wealthy usually feel comfortable

And I'm sorry if my mind is occupied
Apologizing for their busy mind and how it affects their behavior

I'm trying to forget to wonder why
Trying to stop pondering about why their lives are so difficult

We're built up from nothing
Coming from humble beginnings and building up one's life

I'm trying to forget to wonder why
Attempting to stop dwelling on the negative aspects of life
