Lyrics

Calling mister oswald with the swastika tatoo There is a vacancy waiting in the English voodoo Varving 'v' for vandal on the guilty boy's head When he's had enough maybe you can take him to bed To teach him he's alive 'fore he wishes he was dead Turn up the TV no one listening will suspect Even your mother won't detect it So your father won't know They think that i've got no respect But everything means less than zero Hey Oooh hey Hey Oooh hey Oswald and his sister are doing it again They've got the finest home movies that you have ever seen They've got a thousand variations: every service with a smile They're gonna take a little break and they'll be back after a while Well I hear that South America is coming into style Turn up the TV no one listening will suspect Even your mother won't detect it So your father won't know They think that i've got no respect But everything means less than zero Hey Oooh hey Hey Oooh hey A pistol was still smokin', a man lay on the floor Mister oswald said he had an understanding with the law He said he'd hear about a couple in the USA He said they'd traded their baby for a chevrolet Let's talk about the future now we've put the past away Turn up the TV no one listening will suspect Even your mother won't detect it So your father won't know They think that i've got no respect But everything means less than zero Hey Oooh hey Hey Oooh hey
