Brag Lyrics
So you think you got me
Do you really
Think that you can stop me now?
(Think that you can stop me now?)
Write it down if you've been listening
Won't catch you stealing
But I doubt that you could find out how
I'm so sorry, I've been naughty
I've been keeping secrets
Something you'd know nothin' about
You won't cut it
If you ain't got it
But keep me in your recents
So I can relive all of your doubt
I couldn't be your savior if I wanted to
Cause I know what takes to be your next best thing
If you think you got it goin' on then tell the truth
Cause I don't mean to brag
Come and catch me if you can
Oh my god he's the man
I'll never see his face
Certainly won't take his place
(Well, not with the attitude)
Light my doubts up in flames
I'd love to be disgraced
But only if you're watchin'
(Watchin' me)
I'm so sorry, I've been naughty
I've been keeping secrets
Let me tell you who they're about
You won't cut it
If you ain't got it (No no)
But let me know you're listenin' (Ahhh)
So I can eat up all of your doubt
I couldn't be your savior if I wanted to
Cause I know what takes to be your next best thing
If you think you got it goin' on then tell the truth
Cause I don't mean to brag
Come and catch me if you can
(I couldn't be your savior)
(Couldn't catch me if you, catch me if you wanted to)
(I couldn't be your savior)
Cause I don't mean to brag
Come and catch me if you can
Who, who cares?
No one's there
You gonna give it to me?
You gotta give it to me
Life ain't fair
Aren't you scared?
I got the recipe
So try to copy me
I couldn't be your savior if I wanted to
I know what takes to be your next best thing
If you think you got it goin' on then tell the truth
Cause I don't mean to brag, I don't mean to brag
(Okay maybe I do, but)
I couldn't be your savior if I wanted to
(There ain't no way)
Cause I know what takes to be your next best thing
(There ain't no way)
If you think you got it goin' on then tell the truth
(T-t-tell it, tell it, tell it, ow!)
Cause I don't mean to brag
Come and catch me if you can
I couldn't be your savior if I wanted to
Cause nothin' I could do would put me next to you
I'd be lying if I said I always kept my cool
I don't mean to brag
Couldn't catch me if you, catch me if you wanted to
Do you really
Think that you can stop me now?
(Think that you can stop me now?)
Write it down if you've been listening
Won't catch you stealing
But I doubt that you could find out how
I've been keeping secrets
Something you'd know nothin' about
You won't cut it
If you ain't got it
But keep me in your recents
So I can relive all of your doubt
Cause I know what takes to be your next best thing
If you think you got it goin' on then tell the truth
Cause I don't mean to brag
Come and catch me if you can
I'll never see his face
Certainly won't take his place
(Well, not with the attitude)
Light my doubts up in flames
I'd love to be disgraced
But only if you're watchin'
(Watchin' me)

Couldn't catch me if you, catch me if you wanted to

Frontman Brian Butcher had these comments to make about they track.
“It has taken way too long to get to this point for me (where I was no longer doubting myself), since every time I ever felt like I wanted to believe in myself, it just felt like I was beginning to be arrogant"
“That’s the last thing I want to be. So instead, I decided to embrace the idea and write this facetious piece about what it’s like to be in the position that I’m in now with our music.
“By no means do I think our previous or current works are prolific enough to warrant that level of arrogance, but I did think it’d be fun to pretend!
“Hopefully the inherent sarcasm translates, since sprinkled throughout the song are little quips related to the ego that I feel like I see musicians carry with them all the time.”
