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

Verse 3:
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

They 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 goddamn you

Verse 5:
Paranoia, paranoia, everybody's comin' to get me
Just say you've never met me
I'm runnin' underground with the moles, diggin' holes

Verse 6:
I 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 are killing me
