Lyrics
Don't, don't, don't let's start
This is the worst part
Could believe for all the world
That you are my precious little girl
But don't, don't, don't let's start
I've got a weak heart
And I don't get around how you get around
When you are alone, you are the cat, you are the phone, you are an animal
The words I'm singing now mean nothing more than 'meow' to an animal
Wake up, smell the cat food in your bank account
Don't try to stop the tail that wags the hound
D, world destruction
O, for an overture
N, do I need
Apostrophe
T, need this torture?
Don't, don't, don't let's start
This is the worst part
Could believe for all the world
That you are my precious little girl
But don't, don't, don't let's start
I've got a weak heart
And I don't get around how you get around
No one in the world ever gets what they want, and that is beautiful
Everybody dies frustrated and sad, and that is beautiful
They want what they're not and I wish they would stop singing
"Deputy-dog-dog-a-ding-dang-depadepa", "deputy-dog-dog-a-ding-dang-depadepa"
D, world destruction
O, for an overture
N, do I need
Apostrophe
T, need this torture?
Don't, don't, don't let's start
This is the worst part
Could believe for all the world
That you are my precious little girl
But don't, don't, don't let's start
I've got a weak heart
And I don't get around how you get around
I don't want to live in this world anymore
I don't want to live in this world
Don't, don't, don't let's start
This is the worst part
Could believe for all the world
That you are my precious little girl
But don't, don't, don't let's start
I've got a weak heart
And I don't get around how you get around
