Lyrics

0:01Running off over next doors garden
0:02Before the hour is done
0:04It's more a question of feeling
0:05Than it is a question of fun
0:07The confidence is the balaclava
0:09I'm sure youll baffle em good
0:11With the ending wreek of salty cheeks
0:12And runny makeup alone
0:14Ooohh will blood run down the face
0:15Of a boy bewildered and scorned
0:17And you'll find yourself in a skirmish
0:19And you wish you'd never been born
0:20And you tie yourself to the tracks
0:22And there isn't no going back
0:24And it's wrong wrong wrong
0:25But well do it anyway
0:27Cause we love a bit of trouble
0:42Are you pulling her from a burning building
0:43Or throwing her to the sharks
0:45Can only hope the ending is a pleasurable as the start
0:48The confidence is the balaclava
0:50I'm sure you baffle em straight
0:51And it's wrong wrong wrong she can hardly wait
0:55That's right he won't let her out his sight
1:01Now the shaggers perform
1:03And the daggers are drawn
1:04Whos the crooks in this crime
1:09Thats right he wont let her out his sight
1:14How the shaggers perform
1:16And the daggers are drawn
1:18Whos the crooks is this
1:21Crime
1:46That's right he won't let her out his sight
1:52That's right he won't let her out his sight
1:59That's right he won't let her out his sight
2:05You'll be able to post any day of the most
2:08For the sights of all time
2:20You knew that he'd be trouble
2:21Right before the very first kiss
2:23Quiet and assuming
2:25But you heard that they were the naughtiest
2:27She pleaded with you to take it off
2:30But you resisted and fought
2:32"I'm sorry sweetheart about trouble
2:33Keep on the balaclava"
Running off over next doors garden
Before the hour is done
It's more a question of feeling
Than it is a question of fun
The confidence is the balaclava
I'm sure youll baffle em good
With the ending wreek of salty cheeks
And runny makeup alone
Ooohh will blood run down the face
Of a boy bewildered and scorned
And you'll find yourself in a skirmish
And you wish you'd never been born
And you tie yourself to the tracks
And there isn't no going back
And it's wrong wrong wrong
But well do it anyway
Cause we love a bit of trouble
Are you pulling her from a burning building
Or throwing her to the sharks
Can only hope the ending is a pleasurable as the start
The confidence is the balaclava
I'm sure you baffle em straight
And it's wrong wrong wrong  she can hardly wait
That's right  he won't let her out his sight
Now the shaggers perform
And the daggers are drawn
Whos the crooks in this crime
Thats right  he wont let her out his sight
How the shaggers perform
And the daggers are drawn
Whos the crooks is this
Crime
That's right  he won't let her out his sight
That's right  he won't let her out his sight
That's right  he won't let her out his sight
You'll be able to post any day of the most
For the sights of all time
You knew that he'd be trouble
Right before the very first kiss
Quiet and assuming
But you heard that they were the naughtiest
She pleaded with you to take it off
But you resisted and fought
"I'm sorry sweetheart  about trouble
Keep on the balaclava"
