Lyrics

If I had a house I’d board it up Shake it up now, shake it up now
If I had a house I’d board it up Shake it up now, shake it up now
I wrote a letter, but I tore it up Spit it out now, spit it out now
I wrote a letter, but I tore it up Spit it out now, spit it out now
Don’t you think about, think about it Don’t you think about, think about it Don’t you ever think about, think about, think about it
I’d rather carve it into my arm
Serenade the poor boys at the disco
Gonna rip the hands off of all the clocks
(Don't you ever think about, think about, think about it)
I wash my clothing in the evening
Drip-drying, leather-sleeving
I was warmer when the nights were younger
(Don't you ever think about, think about, think about it)
You had a chance, but you fucked it up Fuck it up now, fuck it up now
I had a chance, but I fucked it up Fuck it up now, fuck it up now
I wore a fire in the pouring rain
Didn’t stop, didn’t drop, didn’t roll with it I broke a sweat and then I broke it again
Understand — no man’s got a hand in controlling it Oh, oh no, oh no you don’t
You’re so po-mo, you probably won’t
