0:01What
0:08Behave yourself
0:25Behave yourself
0:28You need to behave yourself boy
0:31Yeah she's built for speed like a black castrum doloris
0:35Good for the needy like nietzsche freud and horace
0:38But I'm skin flint broke making no money making jokes
0:41But baby I won't joke with you
0:45My feet are burning like a roman hypocaust
0:48But the romans are gone they changed their name because they lost
0:51She writes letters like a jack chick comic
0:54Just a bunch of propaganda make my fingers histrionic
0:57Like this and this
1:04I mean she's my baby
1:06But she makes me get avuncular
1:08And when my monkey is jumping
1:09I got no time for making up for her
1:12I fantasize about the hospital
1:14The army asylum confinement in prison
1:18Any place where there's a time to clear my vision
1:27I spit it out
1:30Whatever's in my mouth
1:32Just like that black bat licorice
1:36Yeah that black bat licorice
1:39That black bat licorice
1:43That black bat licorice
1:45Yeah
1:56I wanna cut out my tongue and let you hold onto it for me
1:59Cause without my skull to amplify my sounds it might get boring
2:10I've got the wit of the stickers with atomic clock precision
2:13And the phases of the moon directing all of my decisions like this
2:22Women need to know I play dumb like columbo
2:27And get my feelings hurt and move to ny like I'm dumbo
2:31Don't you want to lose the part of the brain that has opinions
2:34To not even know what you are doing
2:36Or care about yourself or your species in the billions
2:42Yeah I have to spit it out
2:45Oh whatever's in my mouth
2:48I have to spit it out behave your self
2:55Just like that black bat licorice
2:58That black bat licorice
3:01That black bat licorice I never liked it I never will
3:06Now state the same damn thing with the violin
3:22Whatever you feed me
3:25I feed you right back
3:29But it will do no good
What Behave yourself Behave yourself You need to behave yourself boy Yeah she's built for speed like a black castrum doloris Good for the needy like nietzsche freud and horace But I'm skin flint broke making no money making jokes But baby I won't joke with you My feet are burning like a roman hypocaust But the romans are gone they changed their name because they lost She writes letters like a jack chick comic Just a bunch of propaganda make my fingers histrionic Like this and this I mean she's my baby But she makes me get avuncular And when my monkey is jumping I got no time for making up for her I fantasize about the hospital The army asylum confinement in prison Any place where there's a time to clear my vision I spit it out Whatever's in my mouth Just like that black bat licorice Yeah that black bat licorice That black bat licorice That black bat licorice Yeah I wanna cut out my tongue and let you hold onto it for me Cause without my skull to amplify my sounds it might get boring I've got the wit of the stickers with atomic clock precision And the phases of the moon directing all of my decisions like this Women need to know I play dumb like columbo And get my feelings hurt and move to ny like I'm dumbo Don't you want to lose the part of the brain that has opinions To not even know what you are doing Or care about yourself or your species in the billions Yeah I have to spit it out Oh whatever's in my mouth I have to spit it out behave your self Just like that black bat licorice That black bat licorice That black bat licorice I never liked it I never will Now state the same damn thing with the violin Whatever you feed me I feed you right back But it will do no good
