Lyrics

Or Maybe It Is

[Verse 1]

Well I’ve seen young people waste their time

Reading books about sensitive Vampires

It's kind of sad

But you say it's not the end of the world

Well maybe it is

[Verse 2]

Well I read about the Horse race sniper

Shooting jockeys from their horses

He's got good aim

And you say that’s probably not even a crime

Well maybe it is
