I’m a top-notch setter with a top-notch life,
need a five star route that all the members wanna climb,
boss said we setting ropes, told me put up something hard, and
that it’s going on my favorite part on the wall?? Dog, I’m
already psyched, so I’m pulling up the footage from a
dope ass boulder that I saw last night, now I
got an idea, I’m like “aw, that’s tight”, gotta
get the right angle, get the holds just right,
everyhing I want is on top, washed and fresh, looking
for the Pusher Boss and I called it - yes! The crew
just walking in, and I’m halfway done, by the
time they started setting, finished with my first one, like
(Chorus)
That’s a five-star route, (that’s a five star route)
that’s a five-star route, (that’s a five star route)
with the feet to the left, and the hands to the right,
and a complex sequence, gotta get it just right, now
that’s a five-star route, (that’s a five star route)
they want a five-star route, (they want a five star route)
they need a five-star route, (they need a five star route)
I set a five-star route, (set a five-star route)
Went and got the head setter, told him that the route’s done,
set-screwed, taped, chalked up, ready for a run,
so he put his harness on, and he tied his shoes up
got upon it, then I saw him skip right through crux,
grabbed on the foot chips, didn’t even use the sloper,
plus he pointed out the same holds one line over,
with the same exact move, in the same exact place,
so I gotta take it down, put another in its place, and I
can’t even lie, dog - I’m feeling frustrated, but I
got an idea, and the Wafers wasn’t taken,
so I stripped it all down, got another hold set,
put it up before lunch time, and now I’m like “bet,”
(Chorus)
Two o’ clock rolls through, and I’m stuck halfway up,
trying to make that flow, super complex beta,
but it just ain’t working and no matter what I do,
you can stand up high and skip half of the moves,
three o’ clock rolls by, situation no better,
four o’ clock gets here and it just won’t let up,
realized that I’m one draw line to the right,
need to redirect the route, and I’m almost out of time, so I
stripped the last half down, and I said “fuck it,” I’m bout to
throw the random holds up left in my bucket,
heard some crazy shit when I came through the next day,
people crowded all around it - that was when I heard them say,
