Lyrics

Wilt

[Verse 1]

Hair-raising shake, you're much too late

You should have jumped a couple of cars before

Now, if I may, I'll walk away

I'm selling Silly Putty door-to-door

And up on the shelf, it seems to help

If I can keep a little bit of disease

As it's feeding on me

[Pre-Chorus]

You see it's bringing me to my knees

As we all wilt

[Chorus]

Watching you wilt

[Verse 2]

Come right away

And help me bathe away the filthy feeling, frigid and cold

Biting my nails to the fairy tales

About the magic monkey's total control

See, I got Indian Ken and his fleabag friends

With their buckets full of elephant ears

As he's breathing on me

[Pre-Chorus]

His breath is bringing me to my knees

As we all wilt

[Chorus]

Watching you wilt

Pea green the feeling
