lyrics

Well I was out on the prowl
Riding round, casing out
Faculties out on the town
My notions wired, running wild
And I shocked myself
Right into a state

Well I remember that first time
Looking in as I drove by
It flipped a switch in my mind
But don't you worry I reached in there
And I flipped it right back just in time
Yeah sure I could drive a few miles
Ditch some chummy risk and see some new styles
Oh yeah but then I'm missing out
On that feeling, oh I just don't know no other route

Oh because it shocks myself
Right into a state
Oh it shocks myself
It shocks my self and it bends my mind
But it doesn't break

Yeah you know it
Shoots me up
Bolt of love
Fills my cup
Dumps it out
Shocks my self
Shocks my self
Shocks my self
Shocks it to a state

I could sit alone
Or I could live along the line
What's a crucifix, the letter "t"
Seems that one takes your pity while the others free
I know
Get it?
'Cause I don't wanna die

Let's try
What's the use of it, the sweater stinks
I got no one to pity or to tickle pink
I could leave home without it
Just my hairy chest
But I'd lose all the baubles in my sickened jest
And to tell the truth about it, then I couldn't sleep
Couldn't lie down and shout it to the bitter brink
I shrink, I shake, I spill, I break and

My sugar I don't wanna die
You could step right into me
An open mind
Well it shot love through me
Like an arrow in my eye
Two-faced
Split me dry

Yeah
It shocked myself
Shocked myself and it bent my mind
