Don't don't don't let's start | |
This is the worst part | |
Could believe for all the world | |
That you're my precious little girl | |
But don't don't don't let's start | |
I've got a weak heart | |
And I don't get around how you get around | |
When you are alone you are the cat, you are the phone | |
You are an animal | |
The words I'm singing now | |
Mean nothing more than meow to an animal | |
Wake up and smell the cat food in your bank account | |
But don't try to stop the tail that wags the hound | |
D, world destruction | |
Over and overture | |
N, do I need | |
Apostrophe T, need this torture? | |
Don't don't don't let's start | |
This is the worst part | |
Could believe for all the world | |
That you're my precious little girl | |
But don't don't don't let's start | |
I've got a weak heart | |
And I don't get around how you get around | |
No one in the world ever gets what they want and that is beautiful | |
Everybody dies frustrated and sad and that is beautiful | |
They want what they're not and I wish they would stop saying, | |
Deputy dog dog a ding dang depadepa | |
Deputy dog dog a ding dang depadepa | |
D, world destruction | |
Over and overture | |
N, do I need | |
Apostrophe T, need this torture? | |
Don't don't don't let's start | |
This is the worst part | |
Could believe for all the world | |
That you're my precious little girl | |
But don't don't don't let's start | |
I've got a weak heart | |
And I don't get around how you get around | |
I don't want to live in this world anymore | |
I don't want to live in this world | |
Don't don't don't let's start | |
This is the worst part | |
Could believe for all the world | |
That you're my precious little girl | |
But don't don't don't let's start | |
I've got a weak heart | |
And I don't get around how you get around |
