🎤 Sing along

Sing with the chorus

  • Mando, let me know what the play
  • What the fuck?
  • I got hits, I got bucks, I got new paper cuts
  • I got friends, I got foes, but they all sittin' ducks

Echo the hook

  • Squabble up (Mm-mm), squabble up (Mm-mm)
  • Squabble up (Mm-mm), squabble up
  • Hol' up (Hol' up)
  • Where you from? (Where you from?)
squabblefuckknow
