[Chorus]
Simmer down; my head is too hot, so
Simmer down; he's gonna dropped, so
Simmer down; man, he hears what I say
Simmer down; now I've got to, got to simmer down

[Verse 1]
Long time ago, we used to be friends
Picked my bones in my pockets, that's where it ends, so

[Chorus]
Simmer down; control my temper
Simmer down; the battle will be hotter
Simmer down; hope he hears what I say
Simmer down; oh, leaving in a day

[Instrumental Bridge]

[Chorus]
Simmer down; he hears what I say
Simmer down; I'm leaving in a day
Simmer down; hope he hears what I'm sayin'
Simmer down; it's got to be this wa-ay

[Verse 2]
Where's the love, where is the loyalty?
We did our part, now where is love?
[Chorus]
Simmer down; control my temper
Simmer down; the battle will be hotter
Simmer down; it's hard, 'cause it hurts
So simmer down; kick me off to the dirt

[Outro]
Simmer down; but the pain still exists
Simmer down; and hey, sure he'll be missed
Simmer down; it'll make us stronger
Simmer down; and we'll live a lot longer
So simmer down; what goes around
Simmer down; will come around
Simmer down; I know I've got to simmer down
Simmer down; I'm tryin' to simmer down
Simmer down; I've got to, got to simmer down
So simmer down; it's hard, 'cause it hurts
Simmer down; so hard to the dirt
Simmer down; I've got to, got to simmer down
Simmer down; I want to, want to simmer down
So simmer down; I've got to, got to simmer down
Simmer down; it's hard, it hurts
