Impossible Erti

 

 

Verse 1

You call yourself a narcissist,

Then give more than you take.

You call yourself an egoist,

Then show up for your mates.

 

You call yourself a misogynist,

Another label on your list.

But when the girls need your aid,

You’re there before the call is made.

 

Chorus

Oh Erti, Erti,

What are we gonna do?

Big ego, big drama,

That sounds just like you.

Impossible Erti,

You always have a say

You can call yourself whatever 

We love you anyway.

 

Verse 2

Sixteen rules for CTA,

We all had to obey.

Then Erti wrote rule seventeen,

And swept them all away.

 

One set of rules for everyone,

Then Erti changed the game.

The first sixteen don’t count for him,

He signed it with his name.

 

Chorus

Oh Erti, Erti,

What are we gonna do?

Big ego, big drama,

That sounds just like you.

Impossible Erti,

You always have your say

You can call yourself whatever 

We love you anyway.

 

Verse 3

Frankie stood there in the hive,

Right in the center square.

But Erti ended up too far,

And that just wasn’t fair.

 

So never mind the middle spot,

Or where he ought to stand.

If Erti has to walk too far,

Frankie moves on his command.

 

Bridge

But jokes aside, we know your heart.

You give. You guard. You stay.

If someone matters to you,

You never walk away.

 

Generous and loyal,

Protective through and through.

That’s why all the nonsense

Is somehow very you.

 

Final Chorus

Oh Erti, Erti,

What are we gonna do?

Big ego, big drama,

That sounds just like you.

Funny, kind and loyal,

Whatever you may say —

You can call yourself whatever,

We love you anyway.

 

You wanted your song.

so we give you this

Now please stop whining
