Walking in uniform, Put Berny plugmatic,

Every motive escalate. Automotive incinerate.
Light a candle, light a votive.
Step down, step down.
Watch your heel crush, crushed, uh-oh,

Renegade steer clear!
A tournament, tournament, a tournament of lies.
Every motive escalate. Automotive incinerate.
Light a candle, light a votive.
Step down, step down.
Watch your heel crush, crushed, uh-oh,
this means no fear cavalier.
Renegade steer clear!
A tournament, tournament, a tournament of lies.
