Thirty Whacks Songtext
thirty licks with a belt - playing tricks on myself

and i wonder if everyone else is this way

a succession of tests a triumphant success

each time it's still intact at the end of the day


thirty drops in a glass - keep my temper and pass

with my breath held you bastards i'll get you! but then -

its not really so bad, there's still mom there's still

damage to do before they wrest the axe from my heads



its no mystery: you should obviously go

before i break everything

you're always telling me that youre dying to know

but you're not really listening


how do i manage to station myself in harms way

and only get hit with a ticket for loitering

that i have no means to pay - and no strength to argue

the voices are infesting up through the floorboards and they're

murmuring murder me

if i could shut them out just for an hour i swear

i could stop this catastrophe



thirty day guarantee

but that can't include me

after all i'm at home in this childproof world

no sharp corners or glass

no small objects or plastic bags

please, these are death to a delicate girl



its no mystery - you should obviously know

that i'll destroy everything

so dont keep telling me that youre dying to know

cause you'll get what youre asking for



how can it be that i still put myself in harms way

and only get hit with a ticket for loitering

that i have no means to pay - what kind of place is this?

now all the voices are screaming this just isnt fair

but i've got a fool proof plan

if i can get them alone for an hour i swear

it'll look like an accident

i could be decent yet

i'll make up for everything

i could be president....
