Gotta get good with the big black dog Hanging all around the door Gotta get wet in the dirty water Where the fish don't swim no more Sifting through all of my wreck and ruin Gotta get a rhythm with the wiper blades Gotta go bait the rats Gotta get lost in a street parade Of clowns and acrobats Marching through all of my wreck and ruin Well everybody knows where everybody goes When everybody wants something Cooks are in the kitchen, fingers all twitching Waiting for me to sing Ain't it true, you love my wreck and ruin Time to meet the devil inside my head And find out what he's worth Catch that monkey on a wire And bring him back down to earth Like I do, with all of my wreck and ruin Gotta get down with the rattlin' bones Down where the demons lie Gotta get dragging this bag of stones Until the day I die Pay my dues with all of my wreck and ruin Well everybody knows where everybody goes When everybody wants something Cooks are in the kitchen, fingers all twitching Waiting for me to sing Ain't it true, you love my wreck and ruin Ain't it true, you love my wreck and ruin
