I got thirty six foot insulation in my house
Wear 14 pairs of long underwear
Stick tape inside my ears
Cover myself up with five bedspreads
I spend every morning in an isolation tank
Spend every afternoon high up in a tree
Spend every evening with one of those things over my eyes
Like in virtual reality
And I-I-I-I...I'll never fall in love again
I'll have a walkman on my head every step I take
Put thorazine in my morning coffee break
Won't feed the birds bread boys, let them eat cake
I'll lock my doors click click click bang bang when I'm not awake
When I'm walking down the street
Don't make me meet your sister, Pete
When theres a knock knockin at my door
I'll just sit here on the floor
I run 26 miles a day straight up hills
Work overtime to pay all of my hospital bills
I spray black spraypaint on my windowsills
I'll make a million dollars, leave you out of my will
And I-I-I-I...I'll never fall in love again
I-I-I-I...I'll never fall in love again
