Sharing fleas and hotel keysMay the sacrifice to the gods of sleepSaid, won't you wake me up for sweet release?Be sure not to disturb the beastI'm down again, wearing thin out on the rails againThen listen to me screamI said, down the drain like the painDon't tell me you are saneListen to me screamEverybody's doing the parasiteSaid, all the young villains and thievesTalk is cheap, revenge is inI got an ace hidden up my sleeveYes, I doSaid dry your tears and draw your knifeWell, it's eye for eye and strife for strifeBread and circus, lies and wineA dandy dresses to the ninesThat's rightDown again, wearing thin out on the rails againListen to me screamDown the drain like the pain, don't tell me you are saneListen to me screamI said, listen to me screamEverybody's doing the parasiteSaid, all the young villains and thievesThe talk is cheap, and revenge is inAn ace up my sleeveYeah, yeah, everybody's doing the parasiteHuh, said, do you know what I mean?Hit the door when the lights go outForget about what you've seenYeah, get downYeah, I said, everybody's doing the parasiteSaid, all the young villains and thievesI said talk is cheap, revenge is inThere's an ace up my sleeveI said, everybody's doing the parasiteOh, do you know what I mean?I said, hit the door when the lights go outForget about what you've seenHuh, yeah, don't ask meYeah, 'cause I ain't seen nothing
