Burnin' down
Givin' me a cow
What you seem to be saying
Is you're patiently waiting
Like an ashtray for the butt
Well I'm puttin' it down
But you're not pickin' it up
Well I'm puttin' it down
But you treat me like a clown
And I don't wanna be funny
Fat chance
Glued to the wall
Like a centerfold
Of an old cannonball
Will you put me inside
Your tv tonight
'cause you're treatin' me like a rerun
Well I'm puttin' it down
But you're not pickin' it up
Well I'm puttin' it down
But you treat me like a clown
And I don't wanna be funny
No no no no
So what
I lost my job at the Hut
My ass got cut
But I'll be better at kissin'
When my teeth are all missin'
And the silverware's burnt
And I'm eatin' with my fingers
And I'm puttin' it down
And you're not pickin' it up
Well I'm puttin it down
But you treat me like a clown
And I don't want to be funny
Yeah yeah yeah yeah, etc.
Big pain Burnin' down Givin' me a cow What you seem to be saying Is you're patiently waiting Like an ashtray for the butt Well I'm puttin' it down But you're not pickin' it up Well I'm puttin' it down But you treat me like a clown And I don't wanna be funny Fat chance Glued to the wall Like a centerfold Of an old cannonball Will you put me inside Your tv tonight 'cause you're treatin' me like a rerun Well I'm puttin' it down But you're not pickin' it up Well I'm puttin' it down But you treat me like a clown And I don't wanna be funny No no no no So what I lost my job at the Hut My ass got cut But I'll be better at kissin' When my teeth are all missin' And the silverware's burnt And I'm eatin' with my fingers And I'm puttin' it down And you're not pickin' it up Well I'm puttin it down But you treat me like a clown And I don't want to be funny Yeah yeah yeah yeah, etc. Explain Request ×
