This is Class V, from our new album, Drama Queen. This a fan favorite from our live show, so we had to include it on the new album! Sometimes the people we love let us down. We're all human, right?

lyrics

Verse 1:

You're like a bull in a china shop. You're like a class V hurricane.

You're a walking natural disaster. I get the feeling that you're never gonna change.

Well, I'm done with the reconstruction, the charity and the camera crews.

This feels like the same old story. This feels like the same old news.

Chorus:

Stop. Don't go there. Wait, don't go that way.

I, I'm always picking up the pieces, cleaning up the mess you made.

Oh, the mess you made.

Verse 2:

Well, you never see the devastation, the broken things that you leave behind.

I've seen the looks on your victim's faces, eyes glazed over like they wanna die.

I could use some springtime sunshine, I could use some skies of blue.

Next time that you're storming and raging, better think about what you're gonna lose.

Chorus:

Stop. Don't go there. Wait, don't go that way.

I, I'm always picking up the pieces, cleaning up the mess you made.

Oh, the mess you made.

Bridge:

The storm awaits. The storm awaits.

I see raindrops. I hear thunder, falling from the clearer sky.

I see raindrops. I hear thunder, falling from the clearer sky.

Chorus:

Stop. Don't go there. Wait, don't go that way.

I, I'm always picking up the pieces, cleaning up the mess you made.

Oh, the mess you made.
