Wipe it up you're capable of putting back a few when you have to
Memorize the history of your body like a virgin
Ladies night, eighties night, the kids get high and eat
So do we, for Halloween I want to be Lenny Bruce
I want them to hate me
I want them to hate me
I want them to hate me
So you can love me on the sly
My old flame broke the 12 bar blues, just to prove he could
He pays the airline djs now, he is everywhere
I want him to hate me
I want him to hate me
I want him to hate me
So you can love me on the sly
I want him to hate me
I want him to hate me
I don't feel so far away from you lately love me on the sly
(guitar solo-ish)
Fill me in on horrible, how much is there where else can I live
The dirty sugar factory on the water should smell sweet
I want them to hate me
I want them to hate me
I don't feel so far away from you lately love me on the sly
I want them to hate me
I want them to hate me
I dont feel so far away from you lately love me on the sly
I want them to hate me
I want them to hate me
I don't feel so far away from you lately love me on the sly
(guitar solo-ish)
End on
