Delayed Reaction Brats Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Innocent or sweet
Or shooting missiles in the street
They are deceiving
Seeing isn't hard but not believing
[Chorus]
You've got the right to bite
The hype that feeds you
[Verse 2]
Delayed reaction brats
With all your multicolored hats
Are you excited?
But what's been building up to be ignited?
[Chorus]
You've got the right to fight
The hype that bleeds you, bleeds you
Needs you
Innocent or sweet
Or shooting missiles in the street
They are deceiving
Seeing isn't hard but not believing
[Chorus]
You've got the right to bite
The hype that feeds you
[Verse 2]
Delayed reaction brats
With all your multicolored hats
Are you excited?
But what's been building up to be ignited?
[Chorus]
You've got the right to fight
The hype that bleeds you, bleeds you
Needs you
