Cacklin’ and dancin’ is all that you just [Rollins] do
No marvel that your spouse is extra fashionable than you
You are so rattling determined to make all of them cheer
However The Rock goes to make that title disappear
You are merely a humiliation, son
Identical to Ja Morant when he is waving a gun (I like you Ja)
