Lyrics

Scissors

Made it with a wall

And followed by a burp

Of medication that's to treat my skins worms

You can force yourself to eat

When you have had enough

You can turn trash into things

That you can learn to love

How do you turn this thing off?

And why is it wearing those clothes?

Thanks for the scissors

That I haven't used

I thought you were Moses

But I got confused

Why am I north of you?

Sigh on my boring tooth

Lie, it'd be nice of you

I think I'm trying too hard

Soap and water

On your daughter

To get her as clean as she was

At the time you bought her

Before you caught her

Swimming in oil and fuzz

Stop picking at it

It'll never heal

Stroked it till the pus came out wrong

Scarred as you came

Spread out thinly on

A carpet made of hair

Talking with everyone but no one's actually there

How do you turn this thing off?

And why is it wearing those clothes?

Thanks for the scissors that I haven't used

I thought you were Moses but I got confused

Why am I north of you

Sigh on my boring tooth

Lie it'd be nice of you

I think I'm trying too hard
