Lyrics

Bellevue Bridge Club

[Intro]

And I will hold you hostage

Make you part of my conspiracy

You will be witness to carnage

You know there's no you without me

[Verse 1]

I'm gonna shake you

'Til it wakes you, yeah

From your waking dream

Show you affecting scenes

Of life beyond your front door

I will exploit you

Then conscript you

For my narrative schemes

Show you distressing scenes

[Chorus 1]

I'm gonna drag you from your bed onto your floor

By any means necessary

By any means necessary

By any means necessary

I'm gonna dig up what you buried, yeah

By any means necessary

[Verse 2]

There you go again

Finding brilliant ways to make things harder

Are we smarter alone or in this endless Stockholm syndrome?

Here's what is known

We're gonna break this two-way mirror

[Chorus 2]

I'm gonna shake you, break you

By any means necessary

By any means necessary

By any means necessary ('Til some)

By any means necessary (Some day)

By any means necessary (Whoa, some sweet day)

[Bridge]

We will be playing bridge on the psych ward

With Arthur, Jane and Lou

We will be playing bridge on the psych ward

With Barbara, Gene and Sue

Whoa, and if you ever start to get bored

You know there's no one to blame but you

[Outro]

And I will hold you hostage

Make you part of my conspiracy

You will be witness to carnage

You know there's no you without me
