Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Yeah ya tryin' ta tire me, tire me
I can see you in front of me, front of me
Ya tryin' ta tire me, tire me
Why don't you get from in front of me?
[Verse 2]
She's got everyone's eyes
In every home there's a sickening distress
Oh roll that film she's a precious, a precious one
But we're all gonna... nah we're already dead!
We're already dead!
[Verse 3]
And those colorful words for tha Laos frontiersman
Who passed away with the truth amidst tha eulogies of bliss
Who will know now what I know about you
Now that history's a flowery cancerous mess
[Verse 4]
Yeah ya tryin' ta tire me... a mess
Overbearing yes ya tryin' ta tire me... a mess
Yeah ya tryin' ta tire me, tire me
So get the fuck from in front of me!
Nah let's see it broken, bloody and undressed!
We're already dead!
[Verse 5]
I wanna be Jackie Onassis
I wanna wear a pair of dark sunglasses
I wanna be Jackie O... oh oh oh please don't die
[Verse 6]
Yeah ya tryin' ta tire me, tire me
I can see you in front of me, front of me
Ya tryin' ta tire me, tire me
Why don't you get from in front of me?
[Verse 7]
We're already dead!
We're already dead!
We're already dead!
