Saw you grabbin' the controls
Now you're almost outta batteries
You gottta sweater much too small
Pokin' at your navel
Pointin' your finger too
You say your lips don't even stick together
When the dust comes up
Blowin' 'cross the plains
Pictures are fallin' in and outta their frames!
Singing: good and evil, good and evil
They turn 'em loose and they turn into people
Singing: good and evil, good and evil
They turn 'em loose and they turn into people
You know that roses and lilacs are funky too?
Let 'em go at it, let's see what they do
Now they're wrestlin' with the forces of good and evil
They turn 'em loose and they turn into people
I have seen you do things backward
You don't believe a word I say
Now you're holdin' sticky paper
Money never fades away
Talkin' like a monster
Smellin' like a baby
You got a head like a bowl of cherries now
Don't be surprised
You got what it takes
Messin' round like monkeys and apes
Singing: good and evil, good and evil
They turn 'em loose and they turn into people
Singing: good and evil, good and evil
They turn 'em loose and they turn into people
You know that roses and lilacs are funky too?
Let 'em go at it, let's see what they do
Ah - they're messing with the forces of good and evil
They turn 'em loose, they turn into people
Caught you walkin' like a gangster Saw you grabbin' the controls Now you're almost outta batteries You gottta sweater much too small Pokin' at your navel Pointin' your finger too You say your lips don't even stick together When the dust comes up Blowin' 'cross the plains Pictures are fallin' in and outta their frames! Singing: good and evil, good and evil They turn 'em loose and they turn into people Singing: good and evil, good and evil They turn 'em loose and they turn into people You know that roses and lilacs are funky too? Let 'em go at it, let's see what they do Now they're wrestlin' with the forces of good and evil They turn 'em loose and they turn into people I have seen you do things backward You don't believe a word I say Now you're holdin' sticky paper Money never fades away Talkin' like a monster Smellin' like a baby You got a head like a bowl of cherries now Don't be surprised You got what it takes Messin' round like monkeys and apes Singing: good and evil, good and evil They turn 'em loose and they turn into people Singing: good and evil, good and evil They turn 'em loose and they turn into people You know that roses and lilacs are funky too? Let 'em go at it, let's see what they do Ah - they're messing with the forces of good and evil They turn 'em loose, they turn into people Explain Request ×
