But they would rather screw you down
At my request I ask for nothing
You get nothing in return
If you`re nice she`ll bring me water
If you`re not then I will burn

And for every happy hello, there will be good-bye
There`ll be time for you to put yourself on
Verse 3:
Everything I`ve seen needs rearranging
And for anyone who thinks it`s strange
