Verse 1 Get out of my parlour, wont you
Get out of my life
Put on that crazy raincoat
Youre gonna need it tonight
Get out of my parlour
For I cut you with a knife
Dont want your disease
Dont need youre silly jive

Chorus 1 I was an innocent bystander
I was a middle-of-the-roadman for you
Then you took me for a ride, now baby
Showed me all the things you could do
I always listen to the good-looking lady
A mistake I wont make no more
Cause you might be a good-looking lady
Youre rotten to the core
Youre all fucked up

Verse 2 Ive been under your influence
Under your spell too long
Now people keep me at a distance
Everything I do is wrong
My brains disintegrating
Devils singing my song
This cannot continue
This cannot go on
