LYRICS:

She eyes me like a Pisces when I am weak
I've been buried in a heart-shaped box for two weeks
I've been drawn into your magnet tar pit trap
I wish I could eat your cancer when I've been bad

Hey - wait
I've got a new complaint
Forever in debt to your priceless advice
Hey - wait
I've got a new complaint
Forever in debt to your priceless advice
Hey - wait
I've got a new complaint
Forever in debt to your priceless advice
Forever in debt to your priceless advice
Your advice, Your advice, You advise. . .

I'm acting like a Pisces when I am weak
I've been buried in a heart-shaped coffin for weeks
We've been drawn into your magnet tar pit trap
Throw me down your umbilical noose so I, can climb back

Hey - wait
I've got a new complaint
Forever in debt to your priceless advice
Hey - wait
I've got a new complaint
Forever in debt to your priceless advice
Hey - wait
I've got a new complaint
Forever in debt to your priceless advice
Forever in debt to your priceless advice
Your advice, You advise, Your Advice. . .

I'm acting like a Pisces when I am weak
I'm buried in your heart-shaped coffin for two weeks
I've been drawn into your magnet tar pit trap
If you wanted many thing more than the fire. . .

Hey - wait
I've got a new complaint
Forever in debt to your priceless advice
Hey - wait
I've got a new complaint
Forever in debt to your priceless advice
Hey - wait
I've got a new complaint
Forever in debt to your priceless advice
Forever in debt to your priceless advice
Your advice, You advise, Your Advice
