lyrics

sometimes i get so caught up
like i’m sinking to the bottom
might just beat you to death
with a bat or a rake
or a shoe

sometimes i get so messed up
maybe if i just dressed up
i’d feel pretty and sweet
and real clean and real neat
just like you

what it means, i can’t quite tell
an architect of my own hell
what you do i swear could be
the oh-so-timely death of me

sometimes you make me messed up
maybe if you just dress up
you’ll be pretty and smart
making all kinds of art
just like mine

sometimes you get me fucked up
stealing all the words i think up
no, i don’t think it’s cute
wish you’d just get a clue
and resign

what it means, you can’t quite tell
i’ll spell it out, and remember it well
what you do, i swear could be
the long and drawn-out death of me

sometimes i get so caught up
like i’m sinking to the bottom
you’re not pretty or clean
just a snake through the screen
so adieu
