Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I don't wanna be your party doll
All flaked out in tinsel town
With a circus mouth shooting all directions
And TV ads that sell erections
[Verse 2]
I got no clue what they wanna do with you
Well, it's gettin' through, gettin' through to you
[Verse 3]
Like livin' outside in the misdemeanor
Well, some get lost and some are screamers
And it's easy to tell the great pretenders
They got the broken wings and the flip top fenders
[Verse 4]
I don't know what I'm gonna do with you
Hey, am I gettin' through, gettin' through to you?
Yeah
[Verse 5]
I don't wanna be your sufferin' box, yeah
Argue art and untie those knots
Don't wanna be your bad connection
Fit into your reality vision
[Verse 6]
See, 'cause I got no clue what they wanna do with you, yeah
Well, it's gettin' through, it's gettin' through, gettin' through to you
