Set off, wrapped in Christmas lights With a crazy glued Swiss Army knife Pitons and football cleats A suitcase of air and Ketamine To a tower and a maiden Complaining about the mattresses And how peas are the diamonds of peasants Gotta rescue her, and I'm dreadin' it 'Cause I don't like people What do you want me to say? I could lie and say that I do 'Cause lying's my main thing She says, "Hold me tight And don't forget about yesterday And all those things you said to me And all those things you said to me" ♪ Set off in a hurricane In a tiny boat with the ghost of Emmett Kelly To find a chest of golden parlor tricks Got bills to pay and a roof to fix Of a tower for a maiden Complaining about the mattresses Gotta scuba dive to get it In the middle of the night, and I'm dreadin' it No, I don't like people What do you want me to say? I could lie and say that I do 'Cause lying's my main thing She says, "Hold me tight And don't forget about yesterday And all those things you said to me And all those things you said to me"
