lyrics

Verse 1:
I know of a boy who got his shit together
When to the world it looked as though
He’d continue spiraling down
Dumped by a man
Who promised him his love forever
And when he didn’t
The boy he didn’t give up on love like I did

Hook 1:
He looked into the mirror
He saw a scrawny man
A flabby man
And so he decided that he
Was going out
And getting himself a gym membership
And so he did
And when he looks into the mirror now
What he sees is
A guy I only wish
I could have been

Chorus:
He got big in the chest
Not big in the head
And that’s why he’s an inspiration
He got big in the pecs
Not big in the head
And that’s why he’s an inspiration

Verse 2:
I hope since that boy
Could get his shit together
Maybe he could share the key
To finding hidden energy
Like how he went from being dumped
In a slump
Something that could have lasted forever
To tapping into something big
Some inspiration seemingly easily

Hook 2
He looked into himself
He saw a sorry man a pathetic man
And so he decided that he was going out
And getting himself a hot studly man
A brand new boyfriend
And when he looks back on his sad life
What he sees is
A life that I
Currently live and wish that I could
Get away from

Chorus:
He got big in the chest
Not big in the head
And that’s why he’s an inspiration
He got big in the pecs
Not big in the head
And that’s why he’s an inspiration

Bridge:
Good emotions
Job promotions
Plays at night clubs
Shares all his songs
He’s so fortunate
And I’m so envious
I only wish
that I too
could add up

Chorus:
He got big in the chest
Not big in the head
And that’s why he’s an inspiration
He got big in the pecs
Not big in the head
And that’s why he’s an inspiration

Link:
Big arms
Bulging biceps
Oblique’s all lean and
Triceps to die for
He is a muscle whore
Big arms
Bulging biceps
Oblique’s all lean and
Triceps to die for
He is a muscle whore
Big arms
Bulging biceps
Oblique’s all lean and
Triceps to die for
He is a muscle whore
Big arms
Bulging biceps
That’s why he’s an inspiration

Who doesn't enjoy an interesting indie artist? Am I good, am I bad? Who knows. Guess we'll all have to wait and see. Yes, "we" 'cause not even I know myself anymore. I think that really comes out in the tunes though. Who knows, perhaps it may be you who can help solve a mystery? Yeah, I like a lot of retro television :D But I'll be there for you, if you're there for me too! Ha ... more
