And I feel like scumcake
Nothing else compares.
And I seen a skunk head.
And nothing else compares.
And I'm feelin' stinky.
And nothing else compares.
And I'm feeling skanky.
And nothing else compares.
And a chobo that can't be named.
And a trouble that can't be named.
And shooting, I got off my head.
Shoot an apple off my head.
Children like to pull my hair.
Shoot an apple off my head.
Children that pulled off my head.
Shoot an apple off my head.
Clocks go on and I can't be saved.
Lights go out and I can't be saved.
I thought that the opening line had something to do with the title. Wrong! (The title isn't even mentioned until the second verse.)
Close-in walls and ticking clocks
Closing walls and ticking clocks
Close-in walls and ticking clogs
Closing walls and ticking clocks
Close-in walls and ticking clots
Closing walls and ticking clocks
Closing wads and tickling clots.
Closing walls and ticking clocks
Closing wards and chicken pox
Closing walls and ticking clocks
Clothes and walls and tickin' clocks
Closing walls and ticking clocks
Coffee shop never stops.
Confusion that never stops.
Cold fusion never stops.
Confusion never stops.
Cold fusion never stops
Closing walls and ticking clocks.
Confusion never stops
Closing walls and ticking clocks.
Come out of things unsaid
Shoot an apple, give me hell.
Come out of things unsaid
Shoot an apple off my head.
Confucians never stop.
Confusion never stops.
Confucius, he never pops.
Confusion, it never stops.
Could not stop the tuna mont

Oh, I beg I beg and plead.
You've put me down upon my knees

It counts my fears.
Fights go out and I can be paved.
Lights go out and I can't be saved.
Have f***ed me down up on my knees.
Have brought me down upon my knees.
Home, home, where I want you to go.
Home, home, where I wanted to go.
I could not stop the China Gnome.

I could not stop, that you now know.
I'm lost in a storm case
Nothing else compares.
It's a haggis waiting to be tamed...
A tiger's waiting to be tamed.

Kiss Miss Opa, tuna team
Cursed missed opportunities.
Lights go down and I can't be seen
Times that I try to swim again.
Lights go out and I can't be saved
Tides that I tried to swim against.
Lights go out in a cab seat.
Lights go out and I can't be saved.
Lights go out in a candy saint.
Lights go out and I can't be saved.
Lights go out in a candy sale
Lights go out and it can’t be saved
Lights go out in a candy sea
Toss and I tried to swim again.
The lights go out and I can't be saved
Tides that I tried to swim against.
Lights go out in a candy sea
The lights go out and I can't be saved
Lights go out in a candy store.
or
Lights go out in a candid scene.
Lights go out and I can't be saved.
Lights go out in a curry way.
Lights go out and I can't be saved.
Lights go out in the Canvey Sea.
Lights go out and I can't be saved.
Lots go out in a candy stand.
Lights go out and I can't be saved.
My arms smell so skunky
Nothing else compares.
No one else compares
Nothing else compares
Nothing el scumcake.
Nothing else compares.
Nothing else can pay
Nothing else compares.
Or am I part of Ms. Mindy
Or am I part of the disease
Shew the night, pull off my head.
Shoot an apple off my head.
Shoe that I pulled off my hand
Shoot an apple off my head.
Shoe that I pulled off my head.
Shoot an apple off my head.
Shoot an apple at my head.
Shoot an apple off my head.
Shoot an apple up my head.
Shoot an apple off my head.
Shoot and I fall off my head.
Shoot an apple off my head.
Shoot, and I blew off my head
Shoot an apple off my head
Should not have blown off my head.
Shoot an apple off my head.
Shouldn't I blow off my head?
Shoot an apple off my head.
Shouldn't I pull off my head?
Shoot an apple off my head.
Shouldn't I pull out my head?
Shoot an apple off my head.
Shouldn't I pull up my head?
Shoot an apple off my head.
Shouldn't I put up my hand?
Shoot an apple off my head.
Talk to that truck swimmer again.
Tides that I tried to swim against.
Tarzan I tried to swim against.
The tides that I tried to swim against.
The lights go out and I can't be seen
Tides that I tried to swim against.
The lights go out and I can't be saved
Tides that I tried to swim against.
The lights go out and I can't saved
Guys that I tried to win against
F*** me down upon my knees
Oh, I beg, I beg him please singing.
The lights go out and I can't be saved
Tides that I tried to swim against
Have brought me down upon my knees
Oh I beg, I beg and plead singing.

Shoot an apple off my head.
The shoe that I pulled off my head.
Shoot an apple off my head.
There I was...
Where I wanted to go
Tigers tried to swim again
Tides that I tried to swim against.
Tigers waiting to be tamed
His heart is waiting to be tamed

Closing jaws and chickin pox.
Confusion never stops
Closing walls and ticking clocks.
Vomitando por naliz.
Have brought me down upon my knees.

Youuuuuuuuuuuuuuu! Are!
Yooooooo, yoooooooo!
You are, you are!
