[00:08.84] Man, it was mean to be seen in the robes you wore for Lent
[00:16.11] You must've known that it was Easter
[00:22.60] There for a while in your smile
[00:27.33] I could see Mexico blood say
[00:31.40] 'This is true, I was a teaser'
[00:38.19] There were a thousand manitas being exchanged for pesetas.
[00:52.70] Man, it was hard not to laugh out loud
[00:56.33] I couldn't believe the size of the crowd
[00:59.77] You must have fooled them into coming
[01:06.70] Wow, there were women and children too
[01:10.72] They would have hanged us if they knew
[01:14.42] I think I know for certain
[01:18.57] Inside you sniggered so hearty
[01:21.70] you only came for the party
[01:24.80] Man, it was mean, it was mean, man it was mean.
[01:27.83] Remember the time, what a time, we had down in Barcelona
[01:48.25] After you'd been slaying babies
[01:54.31] There, for a time, I was fooled by your disguises
[02:00.00] But I never thought of smashing rules
[02:09.39] You wore the yellow bandana and gave out heavenly manna.
[02:22.97] Then in Amsterdam you were perfect fun
[02:27.37] You never let on you had a gun
[02:30.83] And then you shot that spanish dancer
[02:37.14] The speed at which we ran for a mile or two
[02:41.88] They would have crucified us if they knew
[02:45.16] I think I know for certain
[02:49.31] Inside you sniggered so hearty, we only killed for the party
[02:55.71] Man, it was mean, it was mean, man it was mean.
[03:07.30] You think your important and clever
[03:10.82] But you know where that's at
[03:13.97] You can be this way forever and ever
[03:17.32] Sooner or later you'll fall
[03:32.49] Man, show me something I've never seen
[03:35.77] You're only real in your dream machine
[03:39.59] And all your games a little drastic
[03:46.00] Just throw me out if I get obscene
[03:50.53] But that's the way that I've always been
[03:55.80] I think I know for certain
[03:58.19] Inside you sniggered so hearty, we're only living a party
[04:04.17] Man, it was mean, it was mean, man it was mean.
[04:17.80] We're having a party
[04:20.82] Ooh-ooh, we're having a party
