S ave your sermon, save your conviction
 Your holy book - nothing but fiction
 Hell fire, gentle persuasion
 Just look around you - the fear is frightening

 Hell is other people
 Hell is…

 Said I was a bad boy, I’ll go straight to hell
 Tried to beat some good in me, I was born to rebel
 Grew up with a chip - One on each shoulder
 But I found the truth before I got much older

 It seems the world’s turned lazy
 That they’ve all gone crazy
 I start to smile
 But in a while
 I start to think…

 Hell is other people (3x)
 Hell is…

 So maybe it’s me
 Maybe it’s the age I’ve reached
 I look around
 I see straights and freaks
 Some people get happy looking at a clown
 Some people get crazy, having them around

 It seems the world’s turned lazy
 And that they’ve all gone crazy
 I start to smile
 But in a while
 I start to think…

 Hell is other people (7x)
 Oh, Hell is…!
 Hell is other people (3x)
