Lyrics:

I saw a comment here the other day
I've thought a lot about the things that people say
You said you like the composition but the vocals arent great
"Turn the autotune off, like jeez, you can't do 808s again (I swear to god)"

But I guess that you know better than I do
Maybe I'm not great at writing my own tunes
So I lay here in defeat all black and blue
Never noticed that there's too much autotune

And I'm sorry my stuff is too boring
There's not enough melody, godawful writing
Oh, and I'm weary to sing my words freely
Theres far too much autotune, god, I'm so sorry
Oh, and I'm a sucker for when my synths flutter
I use the same turnaround in all my choruses
"God, you're so tired," and yet I keep lying
I use too much autotune and I'm not sorry

I read an argument the other day
They say that pop musicians cheat to sound okay
And blame the downfall of humanity on Cher and Antares
"It's dishonest and fake, so maybe learn to fucking sing"

But I guess that you know better than I do
Maybe you could go and write some better tunes
Me laughing like an idiot asshole instead of actually singing the lyrics I wrote
I kinda noticed that I use too much autotune

And I'm sorry my music ain't trendy
I guess I lost track of a genre or fifty
And oh, "these synths are boring, your melodies iffy"
I use too much autotune, god, I'm so sorry
Oh, and I'm a sucker for when my fans suffer
So I will write lyrics about how I hate them
"It's sad if not inspiring how hard that she's trying"
I use too much autotune and I'm not sorry

But I guess that I will never be that cool
So I'll sing and dance and paint myself the fool
And I'll be fake so I can be more true
And I'll keep on using too much autotune

(Sorry, I guess)

But I guess that all is fair in war and peace
And I dont really care if you might disagree
So I'll do me and I'll let you do you
And I'll keep on using too much autotune
