Lyrics

    I wake up everyday on
    The wrong side of the bed
    But I won't lay down on the floor
    Like I'm the whore in your head
    Call me a failure
    Pretender, sex-offender, infector
    Say I killed all my friends
    And I deserve to be dead.
    
    Kiss baby kiss
    Bang baby bang
    Suck baby suck
    It's Vodevil
    Kiss baby kiss
    Bang baby bang
    Suck baby suck
    It's Vodevil
    This isn't music and we're not a band
    We're 5 middle fingers on a motherfucking hand
    This isn't music and we're not a band
    We're 5 middle fingers on a motherfucking hand
    
    I won't pull out I just came
    I want all of the blame
    your love is tin, faith is thin
    No concept of pain, right to complain
    All you fagazines, senile teens
    Jaw me black ball me
    Deejay yourself away and turn your back
    It will be easier to stab
    
    Kiss baby kiss
    Bang baby bang
    Suck baby suck
    It's Vodevil
    Kiss baby kiss
    Bang baby bang
    Suck baby suck
    It's Vodevil
    This isn't music and we're not a band
    We're 5 middle fingers on a motherfucking hand
    This isn't music and we're not a band
    We're 5 middle fingers on a motherfucking hand
    
    VIP ADD TRD violent shiny hate crime
    "Total Requested Dead" it's
    Version point (less) downloadable suicide.
    The only ones left standing are the ones not demanding
    This isn't a show, this is my fucking life
    I'm not ashamed you're entertained
    But
    I'm not a puppet
    I am a grenade
    I'm not ashamed you're entertained
    But
    I'm not a puppet
    I am a grenade
    
    Kiss baby kiss
    Bang baby bang
    Suck baby suck
    It's Vodevil
    Kiss baby kiss
    Bang baby bang
    Suck baby suck
    It's Vodevil
    This isn't music and we're not a band
    We're 5 middle fingers on a motherfucking hand
    This isn't music and we're not a band
    We're 5 middle fingers on a motherfucking hand
