lyrics

say that i don't care
still remember the moray
there's a lemonade behind you there
so you know it's okay
turned around

we all rely on enlargement
but now that i'm dying for a little light
we put it in a locket
we're gonna have to go about it right
gold is glittering lies
and flies grow around your eyes

put a little on and you'll learn
i'll bet you thought about
the boy you like
put a little out and they'll know about you
so high a mallet only knew
proud and so divine
and all is riding on the angel of the state
an eye for an eye
