2nd to last line in the 1st verse I'm sure is wrong, but I don't hear it for the life of me. Same with the bridge towards the end; the line after "you need to make up your mind" is unclear.

Still, epic song!

It's "Now the game's getting old" not "Now the kid's gotta know"

and

"You've had your cake and now you're eating it, too" not "leaving it"

I disagree. Listen closer. I think it fits in with the context of the song.

What? The cake and leaving it? Doug likes his catchphrases. He would use cake in the context of "You can't have your cake and eat it, too." But I'll ask to make sure.
