lyrics

Wouldn’t it be nice if I was crime painted blood red
Then the visibility of an altar would be seen by the tilt of your head
I’d be the champion of the kettle, oh to be housebound
In the communion of the recluse
The extrovert has drowned

I gave myself the answers
I cheated, I self diagnosed
And the pragmatic side took me for a ride
and made love to my Holy Ghost

Oh teachers tell your children not to do what I have done-
Once again I fumbled,
but she swallowed a gun

Locks were made to shatter
And maybe I’m in on that joke
Maybe I upset too easily,
I oughta learn to cope

I know on the tv screens at home,
with my head under running water,
with my eyes closed-
All that passes through he millions and the masses
Its not fun
But I know that swallowed the gun


Oh teachers, tell your children not to do what I have done !
Once again I fumbled
Oh I swallowed a gun
