The mongrel cat came home
Holding half a head
Proceeded to show it off
To all his newfound friends
He said, I been where I liked
I slept with who I like
She ate me up for breakfast
She screwed me in a vice
But now

I don't know why I
Feel so tongue tied

I don't know why I
Feel so tongue tied
Don't know why I
Feel so skinned alive
I don't know why I
Feel so tongue tied
Don't know why I
Feel so skinned alive

My thoughts are misguided and a little naïve
I twitch and I salivate like with myxomatosis
You should put me in a home or you should put me down
I got myxomatosis, I got myxomatosis
Yeah, no one likes a smartass, but we all like stars
That wasn't my intention, I did it for a reason

I don't know why I
Feel so tongue tied
Don't know why I
Feel so skinned alive
