My clear favorite so far from the songs I've heard on RP from their new album. Not coincidentally, it also seems to have the least amount of pitch correction.
It's a 3 part song.... two 7s surrounding the "I'm a leech" midsection, which is maybe a 3?
17 / 3 = less than 6. Rounding down.
Sorry for the math.

No thanks...
As usual, deceptively simple, inventive Rock. These guys were and are so important to me, and I appreciate them.



[Chorus]
Hey, now
Damage is done
Danger
The damage is done
[Verse 1]
Get back, I'm gonna do it right now
Twisted mind, on the verge of understandin'
I was tryin', tryin' my darndest
In the light of the livin', cryin', dyin', gift of life
[Refrain]
They don't obey so we won't obey, yeah
I won't obey, no, we won't obey
[Verse 2]
I get back, I need a minute I think
A busy mind, on the verge of understatement
I was kind, kind of blind
In the light of the livin', cryin', dyin', gift of life
[Chorus]
Hey, now
Damage is done
Danger
The damage is done
[Refrain]
They don't obey so we won't obey, yeah
I won't obey, no, we won't obey
They don't obey so we won't obey, yeah
I won't obey, no we won't obey
[Bridge]
Watch your back, it's a trap
Does her best work on her back
Feed the world, took a nap
There's a message I forgot
Don't say that, he's a chump
Now I think he's gonna jump
Yeah, I'm back, not so fast
On the highway or the track
He's ahead all his life
That's a message he forgets
I'm a liquid, I'm the law
I'm a killer, I'm a beast
I'm a leech, I'm a leech
I'm a leech, I'm a leech
I'm a leech, I'm a leech
I'm a leech, I'm a leech
I'm a leech, I'm a leech
I'm a leech, I'm a leech
I'm a leech, I'm a leech
I'm a leech, I'm a leech
[Outro]
I ran a thousand miles
A thousand hills I climbed
I ran a thousand miles
A thousand hills I climbed
I ran a thousand miles
A thousand hills I climbed
I ran a thousand miles
A thousand hills I climbed
