Ah-uh, ah-uh
Jeah, jeah, jeah
Lets it go
Ah-uh, ah-uh
C'mon, ah-uh, ah-uh
Lets it go

Painkiller, oh, uh, uh
Ah-uh, ah-uh
Ah-uh, ah-uh

Jeah, lets it go
Ah-uh, ah-uh
Painkiller, killer, killer, killer, killer, killer

I'm reaching in my cupboard for a painkiller
Ah-uh, ah-uh, for a painkiller, killer, killer

You see, we work hard, play hard
Man, I gotta stay charged
Can't sleep, tired out
Trouble on my radar
Runnin' 'round live wire

Had anotha Red Bull
Everybody's burnin', baby
Let me come and get a pull
Isn't it incredible
That I'm even still awake?
Still alive, still I take
Poison that debilitates

F*ck a little line
We can go ahead and kill a K
Livin' in the killer's state
Maybe that's a good excuse

See me taking shots at the bar
Like I'm bulletproof
Now my belly full of juice
I'm walking every day with a
Bruised lip, battered eye
Beat up stained liver

Ah-uh, ah-uh
I'm reaching in my cupboard for a painkiller
Uh, uh, uh, I need another painkiller
Uh, reaching in my cupboard for a painkiller
Uh, uh, uh, uh, I need another painkiller

They call it painkiller, lets it go painkiller
Uh, uh, uh, I need anotha painkiller
Uh, reaching in my cupboard for a painkiller
Uh, uh, uh, I need another painkiller
They call it painkiller, lets it go

You thought you could take it out
But the world collapse
And you can't see out of it now
You go crazy, baby

Now we live fast, die young
Wish I never tried none
Saturated chemical
But I don't wanna die mum
Maybe you could try some

No point wasting it
First it was a little bit
But now I got my face in it
Run around chasin' it

Everything is so hot
Everybody's screw faced
Looking like so raw
Pressure and it won't stop
Pushing up my heart rate
Arguments and attitude
Mate, you don't wanna start me

Listen man, I can't wait
Now I got a closed fist
Woke up shivering and
Swimming in my own piss
It's just my own risk
A real brain splitta

Ah-uh, ah-uh
I'm reaching in my cupboard for a painkiller
Uh, uh, uh, I need another painkiller
Uh, reaching in my cupboard for a painkiller
Uh, uh, uh, I need another painkiller
They call it painkiller, lets it go painkiller

Uh, uh, uh, I need another painkiller
Uh, reaching in my cupboard for a painkiller
Uh, uh, uh, I need anotha painkiller
They call it painkiller, lets it go

c'mon, c'mon
Painkiller
C'mon, c'mon

You thought you could take it out
But the world collapse
And you can't see out of it now
You go crazy, baby

Ah-uh, ah-uh painkiller
Uh, uh, uh, uh, I need another painkiller
Uh, ah-uh, ah-uh, c'mon
Ah-uh, ah-uh, lets it go, painkiller

You thought you could take it out
But the world collapse
And you can't see out of it now
You go crazy, baby

Ah-uh, ah-uh
I'm reaching in my cupboard for a painkiller
Uh, uh, uh, uh, I need another painkiller
Uh, reaching in my cupboard for a painkiller
Uh, uh, uh, uh, I need another painkiller
They call it painkiller, lets it go

Painkiller, uh, uh, uh
I need another painkiller
Uh, reaching in my cupboard for a painkiller
Uh, uh, uh, I need another painkiller
They call it painkiller, lets it go

Painkiller, uh, uh, uh
I need another painkiller
Uh, reaching in my cupboard for a painkiller
Uh, uh, uh, I need another painkiller
They call it painkiller, lets it go

Painkiller, uh, uh, uh
I need another painkiller
Uh, reaching in my cupboard for a painkiller
Uh, uh, uh, I need another painkiller
They call it painkiller, lets it go

c'mon
