It's a mad, mad world, tell me not to be so mad about it

It's a sad, sad world, tell me that I ought to laugh about it

Funny thing is I'm the one with the cool head

Everything's fine if you pretend

Bless this mess, hallelujah

But I'm about to lose it.

Two, three, four.

Don't tell me to calm down

Tell me to calm down

It's freaking me out that you're not freaking out

Don't tell me I'll be fine

Even if you're right

It's freaking me out

Don't tell me to calm down.

It's a mad, mad world, trying not to lose my shit about it

In a bad, bad mood, maybe I should take a hit about it

Any other day I'd need a hug like a teddy-bear

Now the room's on fire, need to get some air

Oh, bless this mess hallelujah

Thoughts n' prayers, so what, who cares?

Don't tell me to calm down

Tell me to calm down

It's freaking me out that you're not freaking out

Don't tell me I'll be fine

Even if you're right

It's freaking me out

Don't tell me to calm down.

Don't tell me, don't tell me

To calm down.

Don't tell me, no, don't tell me

To calm down.

Drifting through this fever dream

In microplastic submarines

Your body is not yours it seems

What the fuck is happening?

Don't tell me to calm down

Tell me to calm down

It's freaking me out that you're not freaking out

Don't tell me I'll be fine

Even if you're right

It's freaking me out

Don't tell me to calm down.

Don't tell me, don't tell me

To calm down.

Don't tell me, no, don't tell me

To calm down.
