lyrics

Listen up y’all I’m the headliner
So put me up on the throne
And when I find the right people who believe in me
I’ma show you how it goes
Cause I’ve been sittin on the sideline
Watching the winning team
And I’ve been getting pretty tired of standing right here
Watching them all do their thing

Move out yeah I’m the headliner, headliner
Oh I’m the headliner, headliner
Yeah I’m the headliner, headliner
People listen up to what I’m saying oh yeah
Cause I’m the headliner, headliner
Oh I’m the headliner, headliner
Ooh I’m the headliner, headliner
It’s time to move on out of the way

I ain’t your shoe shiner
And I’m too proud to buckle
After these years and years of hard work
I can’t be delusional
I feel the wave moving my way
Gonna push me on through yeah
And when the tide starts pulling me in
I can’t to show you everything that I can do

Move out yeah I’m the headliner, headliner
Oh I’m the headliner, headliner
Oh I’m the headliner, headliner
Better listen up to what I’m saying oh yeah
Cause I’m the headliner, headliner
Ooh I’m the headliner, headliner
Said I’m the headliner, headliner
It’s time to move on out of the way
Yeah

I ain’t got a problem
With a little bit of pride
But how you gonna stand up there on stage
Looking like somebody died?
Yeah the crowd keeps screamin
Have you got some place to be yeah?
Man, if you ain’t gonna be grateful as you’re living my dream
Woulda ya give me the god damn key

Get out the way cause I’m the headliner, headliner
Oh I’m the headliner, headliner
Ooh I’m the headliner, headliner
People listen up to what I’m saying oh yeah
Cause I’m the headliner, headliner
Oh I’m the headliner, headliner
Say I’m the headliner, headliner
It’s time to move on out of the way

Yeah I’m the headliner, headliner
Oh I’m the headliner, headliner
Ooh I’m the headliner, headliner
People listen up to what I’m saying oh yeah
Headliner
Cause I’m the headliner, headliner
Yeah I’m the headliner, headliner
It’s time to move on out of the way
Oh I’m the headliner

about

Caleb Hawley New York, New York

New York-based, singer, songwriter, and producer, Caleb Hawley independently released Love, Drugs, & Decisions in 2017 followed by Sex Tape in 2018. Raw lyrics and somber themes are sweetened by pop beats, androgynous vocals, and sensuality inspired by the Minneapolis sound of the 80s and dance rock. His lyrics are introspective and observational, peering at the glamorous facades in society. ... more
