Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Gunner walks in late
Acting like the floor owes him rent
Mouth full of attitude
Like manners got up and left
He knocks my books down
Then says, “That’s just how I am”
Teacher gives him that look
He shrugs like, “I still don’t care, ma’am”
[Pre-Chorus]
He talks over everybody
Even his own echo, too
If disrespect were homework
He’d turn in something due
[Chorus]
Gunner, Gunner
Why you gotta be that way?
Gunner, Gunner
Mean before the day can start
Gunner, Gunner
You rude in every single class
Gunner, Gunner
Somehow you make a quiz feel hard
(So rude)
[Verse 2]
He borrows a pencil
Then acts like you stole it back
Rolls his eyes at “please” and “thanks”
Like those words are off his track
He says “move” to the hallway
Says “whatever” to the bell
Even the group project
Sits there looking underwhelmed
[Pre-Chorus]
He’s got a talent for the exits
And a gift for killing vibes
If apology were a subject
He’d never pass that in his life
[Chorus]
Gunner, Gunner
Why you gotta be that way?
Gunner, Gunner
Mean before the day can start
Gunner, Gunner
You rude in every single class
Gunner, Gunner
Somehow you make a quiz feel hard
(So rude)
[Bridge]
One day he said “my bad”
And the room went quiet, shocked
We thought the moon fell down
Or maybe time just stopped
Then he laughed at his own joke
Like that fixed everything wrong
But class still knows the truth
By the second that he’s gone
[Chorus]
Gunner, Gunner
Why you gotta be that way?
Gunner, Gunner
Mean before the day can start
Gunner, Gunner
You rude in every single class
Gunner, Gunner
Somehow you make a quiz feel hard
(So rude)
[Outro]
Gunner, try “please”
Gunner, try “thanks”
Gunner, try “sorry”
That’s a real strong start
Style of Music
Pop-punk with brisk midtempo bounce, palm-muted verses, punchy gang-chant chorus, and half-time pre-chorus lift; verse rides tight bass and snapped handclaps, pre-chorus strips to drums and a sneering vocal, chorus hits with stacked doubles and shouted backing phrases. Add record-scratch stings into the first chorus, a short bell twinkle before the bridge, and a final key-change feel. Bright, punchy mix with a dry close-mic lead and wide group hooks.
