So you were born in an electrical storm took a bite out the sun and saw your future in a machine built for two Now your rays make me kind of go crazy shock and awe and amaze me just a ticker tape parade and me but something was wrong till you tap danced on the air in the night Screaming at the top of your lungs you said Come on come on Do what you want What could go wrong Oh come on come on come on come on do what you want Oh come on come on What could go wrong Do do do do what you want Come on
Me I was raised amid the trickle down days I woke up numb in the haze and saw my future machine built for two but the light gave me some kind of fright How did wrong get so right and lead me stumbling through the dark of night Oh something was wrong but you tap danced on the air in the night Screaming at the top of your lungs you said Come on come on Do what you want What could go wrong Oh come on come on come on come on do what you want Oh come on come on What could go wrong Do do do do what you want Come on Do do do do what you want Do do do do what you want
Do do do do what you want Do do do do what you want Do what you want Do what you want Do what you want Do Do what you want Do Do what you want Do Do what you want Do do do do what you want come on come on come on come on come on come on Do do do do what you want Do Do what Do Do
I can't remember half an hour since a quarter to four. Throw on your clothes, the second side of Surfer Rosa,
and you leave me with my jaw on the floor. Just when you think you're in control, just when you think you've got a hold, just when you get on a roll, here it goes, here it goes, here it goes again. Oh, here it goes again. I should have known, should have known, should have known again, but here it goes again. Oh, here it goes again. It starts out easy, something simple, something sleazy,
something inching past the edge of the reserve. Now through lines of the cheap venetian blinds your car is pulling off of the curb. Just when you think you're in control, just when you think you've got a hold, just when you get on a roll, here it goes, here it goes, here it goes again. Oh, here it goes again. I should have known, should have known, should have known again, but here it goes again. Oh, here it goes. Oh, here it goes. Oh, here it goes again. Oh, here it goes again. Oh oh Oh, here it goes. Yeah, oh here it goes again. Hey hey Oh, here it goes. All right! I guess there's got to be a break in the monotony,
but Jesus, when it rains how it pours. Throw on your clothes, the second side of Surfer Rosa,
and you leave me, yeah, you leave me. Oh, here it goes, here it goes, here it goes again. Oh here it goes again. I should have known, should have known, should have known again, but here it goes again. Oh, here it goes, here it goes. Oh here it goes again. I should have known, should have known, but here it goes again. Oh here it, Oh here it, Oh here it, Oh here it, Oh here it goes I should have, I should have, I should have, I should have, I should have known Oh, here it goes, here it goes, here it goes again. Oh here it goes again. Oh, here it goes again.

I saw you sliding out the bar. I saw you slipping out the back door, baby. Don't even try and find a line this time, it's fine. Darling, you're still divine.
You don't love me at all, but don't think that it bothers me at all. You're a bad-hearted boy-trap, babydoll, but you're... You're so damn hot.
So now you're headed to your car. You say it's dinner with your sister, sweetie. But darling look at how you're dressed. Your best suggests another kind of guest.
You don't love me at all, but don't think that it bothers me at all. You're a bad-hearted boy-trap, babydoll, but you're... You're so damn hot.
So who's this other guy you've got? Which other rubes are riding hot-shot, sugar? I could have swore you said before, "No more, for sure." What'd I believe you for?
You don't love me at all, but don't think that it bothers me at all. You're a bad-hearted boy-trap, babydoll, but you're... You're so damn hot.
Come on in, sweetie-pie! Have an apple, have some lye... Leave your friends, righteous and pathetic, standing at the door. On the books, all your bets favor head-bands and cassettes, cigarettes, suffragettes, and bores.
What to do? Sweetheart, you'll find mediocre people do exceptional things all the time. Oh, the ruin will do in your talented mind... could've been a genius if you'd had an axe to grind.
When we moved to the city, it seemed the competition got so much less pretty but the,the, mirror's never failed you like this before. So your revenge on the world will be pencils through your curls and if wanting ever taught you anything, it's wanting more. (and more and more and more...)
What to do? Sweetheart, you'll find mediocre people do exceptional things all the time. Oh, the ruin will do in your talented mind... could've been a genius if you'd had an axe to grind. What to do?
When that day finally nears, you'll at least have made it clear that compassion's just a nicer way of looking down your nose. It seems that all the people want to do is crowd the streets of Amsterdam (Pamplona, too), but the bulls have already come and gone and bellowed all their lows. Now nobody knows
what to do. Sweetheart, you'll find mediocre people do exceptional things all the time. Oh, the ruin will do in your talented mind... Could've been a genius if you'd had an axe to grind. What to do?
