Lyrics[edit | edit source]

i know that you don't want me hanging around
hanging you up and bringing you down
i've got news that things have changed
real as in funny when i don't even mean it
so when you look at me as i walk the streets
finding your way in satin sheets
following us, it's like you can't repent
the violent me is gonna squeeze you to death

the way that i do
the way that i do
the way that i do

come by here, i need you
here to get your dream

a dog wags his tail at its master's stick
the dog will require me that i make
i've got the dog, find your place
i'm holed up in a rotten place
so teenybopper which you sold your soul
bastard sold my phony goal
well i intend to put you in a hole in the ground

the way that i do
the way that i do
the way that i do
the way that i do

i know that you don't want me hanging around
hanging you up and bringing you down
i've got news that things have changed
real as in funny when i don't even mean it
the way you look at me as i walk the streets
finding your way in your satin sheets
cold winds doesn't take care of this
the naked me is gonna squeeze you to death

the way that i do
the way that i do
the way that i do

the way
the way that i do
the way that i do
the way that i do

the way that i do
the way that i do
the way that i do
the way that i do
the way that i do

dog wags his tail at its master's stick
but dog thinking about it
i've got the time to find you a place
it's bottled up in a rotting case
teenybopper which you sold your soul
bastard sold for a phony goal
i intend to put you in a hole in the ground
