It's not what I mean, it's what I have to say.
It's not what I mean! It's what I have to say!
So it appears my words were lies?
Give me the benefit of the doubt.
So it appears my words were lies?!?!
Give me the benefit...
Give me the benefit...
Give me...
Give me...
Give me the benefit of the doubt.
I'm not as cruel as you make me out to be.
But twist my words and I'm a liar.
I'm not as cruel as you make me out to be!
But twist my words! I'm a liar!
So it appears my words were lies?
Give me the benefit of the doubt.
So it appears my words were lies?!?!
Give me the benefit...
Give me the benefit...
Give me...
Give me...
Give me the benefit of the doubt.
She tramples the daisies and eats all the ham.
Pure and clean ham, not the ham in a can.
It get's chewed up, spit out, and twisted around.
Injected, infected, driven into the ground.
You're standing on the ceiling while you're looking in your spoon.
The British are coming twelve hours past noon.
Get a live picture of the happy insane, and let the sun in their eyes infiltrate your brain.
And you're speaking Japanese, but I don't understand why the kamikaze pilots got their heads stuck in the sand.
But I take it like a candy (and I take it in fast).
Clean out my brain, and burn up the past.
So follow me... I'm on my way.
Blood stained sickness (the mark on your sleeve).
The insects are brainwashing you to believe.
Brain turned to oatmeal with sugar and fruit.
Whiplash man just bought a three piece suit.
The chalkboard quiz baits the breath of the scenery.
Emotions go dull painted blue on the greenery.
Dinner smells bad so I throw it on the ground.
Tattle-tale rattletrap's repressin' a frown.
The reverse doesn't work, transmission's stuck in drive.
The slavery inside has come to open my eyes.
So follow me... I'm on my way
Give me some of that! Give me some of that trash!
Take me to the pawn shop and hand out the cash!
Buddy, how can it be you're gettin' more than you paid for?
"That's the way it works when you walk out the same door."
Who's your daddy?
Who's your mom?
Who's in prison?
Who's the bomb?
What's my sign?
What's my number?
See the tree inside the lumber?
