I had visions, I was in them
I was looking into the mirror
To see a little bit clearer
Rottenness and evil in me
Fingertips have memories
Mine can't forget the curves of your body
and when I feel a bit naughty
I run it up the flagpole and see who salutes
(but no one ever does)
I'm not sick but I'm not well
and I'm so hot cause I'm in hell
Been around the world and found
that only stupid people are breeding
The cretins cloning and feeding
and I don't even own a TV
Put me in the hospital for nerves
and then they had to commit me
You told them all I was crazy
they cut off my legs now I'm an amputee, God damn you
I'm not sick but I'm not well
and I'm so hot cause I'm in hell
I'm not sick but I'm not well
and it's a sin to live so well
I wanna publish zines
and rage against machines
I wanna pierce my tongue
It doesn't hurt, it feels fine
The trivial sublime
I'd like to turn off time
and kill my mind
You kill my mind
Paranoia paranoia
Everybody's coming to get me
Just say you never met me
I'm going underground with the moles, diggin' holes
Hear the voices in my head
I swear to God it sounds like they're snoring
but if you're bored then you're boring
The agony and the irony, they're killing me
I'm not sick but I'm not well
and I'm so hot cause I'm in hell
I'm not sick but I'm not well
and it's a sin to live so well

Watch your children around the abandoned well
Don't ask me to tell if they slipped and fell
I'm just a salesman with my suitcase in hand
And the perfect plan that should pull me out
Another day, another night, another year
Another smile, another lie, another tear
This better not be all I got
I never thought I'd end up here
Jingle jangle that's the sound of coins
Spent on useless toys made for useless boys
I'm just a salesman with my suitcase in hand
There's a piece of land that I got my eye on
Another day, another night, another year
Another smile, another lie, another tear
This better not be all I got
I never thought I'd end up here
Friday night I'll raise my glass and say
"Tomorrow things will change! I can't afford to wait."
But by Monday morning my alarm clock knows
How this story goes and the ending's the same as the start
Another day, another night, another year
Another smile, another lie, another tear
This better not be all I got
I never thought I'd end up here
Another day, another night, another year
Another smile, another lie, another tear
This better not be all I got
I never thought I'd end up here
Watch your children around the abandoned well
Don't ask me to tell if they slipped and fell
I'm just a salesman with my suitcase in hand
And the perfect plan that I'm working on
