Crown on the Ground Lyrics
You never doubted it
You're so proud of it
You straight shouted it
You sold out of it
You couldn't care less
You're like a kid, yes
You think it's endless, endless, endless
You think you started this
It doesn't bother us
No clue about it
No you never knew about it
You need the spotlight
You need to sit tight
You wanna real fight, ah ah
Set set that crown on the ground and ah
Set set that crown on the ground and ah
Set set that crown on the ground and ah
Set set that crown on the ground and ah
Set set that crown on the ground and ah
And Ah ah ah
You need to look back
To see your back track
Do you hear that?
Someone in your habitat
You are the real thing
You hear the bell ring
The class is ending ending ending
You never think though
You don't wanna know
There's another show playing in your window
But for the better you
It's never never through
you're gonna have to have to have to
Set set that crown on the ground and ah
Set set that crown on the ground and ah
Set set that crown on the ground and ah
Set set that crown on the ground and ah
Set set that crown on the ground and ah
Set set that crown on the ground and ah
And Ah ah ah
Set set that crown on the ground x16
You're so proud of it
You straight shouted it
You sold out of it
You're like a kid, yes
You think it's endless, endless, endless
It doesn't bother us
No clue about it
No you never knew about it
You need to sit tight
You wanna real fight, ah ah
Set set that crown on the ground and ah
Set set that crown on the ground and ah
Set set that crown on the ground and ah
Set set that crown on the ground and ah
And Ah ah ah
To see your back track
Do you hear that?
Someone in your habitat
You are the real thing
You hear the bell ring
The class is ending ending ending
You don't wanna know
There's another show playing in your window
But for the better you
It's never never through
you're gonna have to have to have to
Set set that crown on the ground and ah
Set set that crown on the ground and ah
Set set that crown on the ground and ah
Set set that crown on the ground and ah
Set set that crown on the ground and ah
And Ah ah ah

At the end of the song I think she yells "Sic Semper" as in sic semper tyrannis (basically death to tyrants), which i think ties into the whole Crown on the ground name of the song. Anyone see that too?

this is a fucking jam
I like to pretend she says "set that crown on the ground nana"
First missing lyric might be 'it's worth shouting it' - though I like yeahyeahyeah92's 'you street-shouted it', too.
The second sounds like 'is that we're never through', but how does that work with 'the perm'nent thought of you?'
And 'to see a clear PATH somewhere in your habitat' makes more sense to me.
mathtractor, I love the 'sic semper' idea and it's joining the official lyrics in my head.
If I ever made a Charlie's Angel-esque, kick-butt action film, this would be the theme music for the lead heroine. It's got such an awesome vibe!
This song is gonna be in all types of random car commercials soon enough
I kept singing "Sad, sad, like a crown on the ground", but "Set that crown on the ground" makes so much more sense with the other lyrics. I guess it's about swallowing your pride, and getting over yourself.
in the third line i thinks she says "you street shouted it"
From looking at the lyrics, it seemed to be about a popular/goody-two-shoes girl ("you love goodness"/"in the spotlight") who wants to let loose, and she's saying it's okay to "se that crown on the ground". I can't really make out the 2nd verse though.
"The perm'nent thought of you, Is (???) through"
I hear "is never, never through"
