Wake up baby, what you in for
Start the day upon your knees
What you pissing in the wind for
You must have snorted too much blees
East house pinball wizard
Full tilt bozo played
Second floor trekkie
Making warp speed out the door
Julio Anpacolucci
He the only one who stayed
Countin’ up the days
Please no more
My fist your face
That’s for sure
Hey Betty Boop you got me drooling
I’m buzzing ’round your hive tonight
You played the hooky stead of schooling
Son of a bitch put out the light
13-year-old hookers
Drag yourself right through the thorns
You wonder why the man’s outside your door
Junior achievers, got the old bull by the horns
Back in the saddle get you some
My fist your face
That’s for sure
Yeah!
East house pinball wizard
Full tilt bozo played
Second floor trekkie’s
Making warp speed out the door
Julio Anpacolucci
He the only one that stayed
I’m countin’ up the days
Please no more
Yeah
My fist your face
That’s for sure
My fist your face
That’s for sure
My fist your face
That’s for sure
