The water's choppy, but it doesn't cut me no
Cause I ain't sinkin, no I ain't going down below
I don't think that way, you know I never have
I can't slow down now, just because you lag
You're always pulling, keep on trying to bring me down
I'm going to show you that I don't like to fuck around
You show your face, and I'll look the other way
You blink your eyes, and you've got no friends to play
Go!
Pick up the slack
No! 
I can't carry your monkey on my back
Woah
Save the world
No way! 
Got no time, I've got to save myself today
I've got a mission to fulfill the things in life
I've got a lot of things to see before I live to die
All this negativity tries to bring me down 
As you get worse, I turn my life around
Go!
Pick up the slack
No! 
I can't carry your monkey on my back
Woah
Save the world
No way! 
Got no time, I've got to save myself today
Save myself today
Save myself today
Saving the world's great
But I gotta save myself first
The water's choppy, but it doesn't cut me no
Cause I ain't sinkin, no I ain't going down below
I don't think that way, you know I never have
I can't slow down now, just because you lag
Go!
Pick up the slack
No! 
I can't carry your monkey on my back
Woah
Save the world
No way! 
Got no time, I've got to save myself today
Save myself today
Save myself today
Save myself today
