lyrics

My sister thinks your new boyfriend looks fifty
She put it better than I ever could
She thinks the game you play is rather nifty
I guess you call yourself misunderstood

Doo-doo doo-doo doo-doo
Doo-doo doo

And if you wanna go home, you can stay home this time
In your run-down beach house
And I hope you sleep out
And never reach out

We were stuck on a runaway trolley
And it was either gonna kill one of us or five others
So you pulled the brakes down
Man, I hope you stay down

Cyanide can help you raise a devil
It plucks the unibrow from off your face
And you could never really get up to my level
You couldn't even join the human race

Doo-doo doo-doo doo-doo
Doo-doo doo

And if you wanna go home, you can stay home this time
In your run-down beach house
And I hope you sleep out
And never reach out

We were stuck on a runaway trolley
And it was either gonna kill one of us or five others
So you pulled the brakes down
Man, I hope you stay down

When the mark on the ministry man is faded
And the cab for the criminal's armour-plated
When you ask for a mineral and get sedated
It's cessated

Ohhh...

And if you wanna go home, you can stay home this time
And if you wanna go home, you can stay home this time
