Don't come close to me;

let me breathe!

You smell like a pig in gasoline

sick scent of control.

So should I tell you how I feel,

or practice some self restraint?

Think I'll have to go with honesty.

So here it goes...

 

Don't act surprised.

When something Bad

should happen to you,

nor to your little car.

Your tricyce with a motor.

Your tricylce with a motor.

 

Equiped with a sorded sense of real,

finding importance in the miniscule.

Lost sense of humanity,

by playing a part.

Respect, above all

must be earned,

so command me one more time

and I'm afraid I'll have to say...

 

Don't act surprised.

When something Bad

should happen to you.

Nor to your little car.

Your trycycle with a motor.

Your trycycle with a motor.
