Lyrics

I Wanna Be Sedated

[Chorus]

Twenty-twenty-twenty four hours to go

I wanna be sedated

Nothing to do, nowhere to go

I wanna be sedated

[Verse 1]

Get me to the airport, put me on a plane

Hurry, hurry, hurry before I go insane

I can't control my fingers, I can't control my brain

Oh, no

[Chorus]

Twenty-twenty-twenty four hours to go

I wanna be sedated

Nothing to do, nowhere to go

I wanna be sedated

[Verse 2]

Put me in a wheelchair and get me on a plane

Hurry, hurry, hurry before I go insane

I can't control my fingers, I can't control my brain

No, no

[Instrumental Bridge]

[Chorus]

Twenty-twenty-twenty four hours to go

I wanna bе sedated

Nothing to do, nowherе to go

I wanna be sedated

[Verse 3]

Put me in a wheelchair, get me to the show

Hurry, hurry, hurry before I go loco

I can't control my fingers, I can't control my toes

Oh, no

[Outro]

Ba-ba, ba-ba, ba-ba-ba, ba-ba

I wanna be sedated

Ba-ba, ba-ba, ba-ba-ba, ba-ba

I wanna be sedated

Ba-ba, ba-ba, ba-ba-ba, ba-ba

I wanna be sedated

Ba-ba, ba-ba, ba-ba-ba, ba-ba

I wanna be sedated

That's punk as fuck
