Be My Enemy

Well, the dawn is howling and the mainframe shakes

Feel like I've been sleeping in a cellar full of snakes

Well, my wings have been clipped, and my shoes have been stuck with glue

Oh, would you be my enemy, oh, I'll be your enemy too

Well, I've got goons on my landing, thieves on my trail

Nazis on my telephone, they're willing me to fail

They were all sent by someone, and I think that someone, it was you

Oh, would you be my enemy, and I'll be your enemy too

I've a bucketful of Babylon, I got a handful of lead

I'm gonna put them in a gun, man, point it at your head

Because you stole my friends, and you gave me the buffalo blues

Oh, would you be my enemy, and I'll be your enemy too

Slime on your tongue to the nails on your toes

Scales on your skin to the stains on your clothes

You're gonna make me have to do something that I do not want to do

Oh, would you be my enemy, oh, oh, I'll be your enemy too

That's right!

Oh, my hands are tied, nailed to the floor

Feels like I'm knocking on the unknown door

Gun at my back, a blade at my throat

Keep on finding hate mail in the pockets of my coat

Well, I've been trying to grow, I been cooling my heels

I've been working the treadmill, I've been working in the fields

And I can't get to sleep, and I can't catch my breath

I can't stop talking and I look like death

But I will set right this disgrace, and I will, I'll rearrange you

Oh, would you be my enemy, oh, I'll be your enemy too

Oh, would you be my enemy, I'll be your enemy too

Be my enemy!

And I'll, woo, I'll

Ah, ah, ah

Woo!
