== Lyrics ==
[chorus - Ellen]
Don't wanna be a government lackey
Don't want a Team that's oppressed and tacky
Can't you see how it's fucked up and hackneyed?
A subcutaneous mindfuck with acne
Welcome to a new kind of Big Team
Robbed of its heroic teen dream
Where everything is meant to be fucked up
All our faces on TV and Chitter
Never a headline that fit her
Why don’t you ask me directly?
[The Jackal]
HEY! WASHINGTON!
[verse 1 - Gwen]
We didn’t select you, yeah, we had no choice
Where’s the democracy?
You don’t represent us so maybe we’ll have
A Big Team Tea Party!
[chorus - Ellen]
Yeah, I don’t wanna be a Godspeed lackey
Don't want a Team that's oppressed and tacky
Can't you see how it's fucked up and hackneyed?
A subcutaneous mindfuck with acne
Welcome to a new kind of Big Team
Two years old and devoid of its old sheen
I guess that’s just how it is
All our faces on TV and Chitter
Busting villains from genocide to litter
Why don’t you face me directly?
[The Jackal]
HEY! WASHINGTON!
[verse 2 - Gwen]
You act high and mighty, but I guess you are
Compared to us bunch of teens
Don’t manifest your destiny where I can see it
Or we’ll tear it apart at the seams!
[All]
YEET
[music of increasing speed and volume]
[ukulele solo]
[chorus - Ellen & Boon]
Yeah, I don’t wanna be a Godspeed lackey
Don't want a Team that's oppressed and tacky
Can't you see how it's fucked up and hackneyed?
A subcutaneous mindfuck with acne
Welcome to a new kind of Big Team
Drenched in the blood of our old dream
That just means it’s time for a revolt
All our faces on TV and Chitter
A death glare that still says “come hither”
Why don’t you engage directly?
[The Jackal]
Won’t you engage directly?
[Gwen]
Why don’t you engage me?
[explosions]
