But they would rather screw you down

At my request I ask for nothing

You get nothing in return

If you're nice she'll bring me water

If you're not then I will burn

And for every happy hello, there will be good-bye

There'll be time for you to put yourself on



Verse 3:

Everything I've seen needs rearranging

And for anyone who thinks it's strange
