Tone: [C]
Intro:
[G] [F]
You [C]pay me to exaggerate, I [G]think I've done e[F]enough
of turning [C]bummers
into heartaches and [G]crushes into [F]love
Some[C]Sometimes our lives are mild, our [G]stories: just [F]okay
I'll [C]set your expectations in
the [G]middle when I [F]say: "Hell [C]yep"
[G] [F] A hell [C]yep
Interlude:
[G] [F]
And [C]knock me down a peg
when I [G]wanna be a big shot [F]
I'm just a [G]toddler
with a slingshot
Interlude:
[C] [G] [F] [C]
[G]For ex[F]example:
I got [C]cornered by a
salesman at a [G]farmers market [F]booth
selling [C]cheap ceramic bowls
meant for [G]dogs to eat their [F]food
I [C]haggle like a master, I [G]showed them how I [F]do
I [C]didn't want one, but I [G]got a deal for [F]two
Hell [C]yep [G]
I don't [F]have a [C]regret [G]
Or a [F]dog
[C]Knock me down a peg
when I [G]wanna be a big [F]shot
I'm just a [G]toddler with a sling[F]slingshot
Don't have the strength
[G]Don't have the aim
I'm [C]building up my motor
skills and [Am]everything's a game
[F]You say I'm harmless -[G]-you're probably right-
But [C]nothing is more trouble
than a [Am]toddler going quiet
Keep an [F]eye on me, keep your [G]eye, keep your eye on [C]me
Interlude:
[G] [F] [C] [G] [F]
... and [C]knock me down a peg
when I [G]wanna be a big shot [F]
I'm just a [G]toddler with a slingshot
Interlude:
[C] [G] [F] [C] [G] [F]
I [C]asked for half your candy bar
you [G]raised it in the [F]air
and [C]split it down the middle
made a [G]perfect little [F]pair
You [C]smiled like a sweetheart
my [G]hand extended [F]out
You [C]winked at me and popped
both of the [G]pieces in your [F]mouth
Hell [C]nope
[G]That [F]one's a hell [C]nope… no [G]
mercy with a [F]Hershey ‘fore she
[C]Knocked me down a peg
when I [G]wanna be a big [F]shot
I'm just a [G]toddler with a sling[F]slingshot
Don't have the strength
[G]Don't have the aim
I'm [C]building my-my-motor
skills and [Am]everything's a game
[F]You say I'm harmless -[G]-so did Goliath-
But [C]nothing is more trouble
than a [Am]toddler going quiet
Keep an [F]eye on me, keep your [G]eye, keep your eye
and [Am]watch [G]me [F]well
or I'll [G]raise a little [C]hell
[G]..[F]... a hell [C]yep
Interlude:
[G] [F]
They [C]asked me for a catch phrase
I [G]didn't miss a [F]step
If their [C]story's kind of boring
you can [G]tell 'em: "Hell [F]Yep," Hell Yep!
[C]Knock me down a peg
when I [G]wanna be a big shot [Am]
and I will [F]kick it up the next notch [G]
And [Am]if I work, put [G]in the labor,
[F]blood, sweat, call in [G]every favor
[Am]Eat my veggies, [G]say my prayers,
[F]push myself to [C]be a [G]danger…
... I'll be a [F]preteen with a [G]Taser
