Verse 1    Get out of my parlour, won’t you
           Get out of my life
           Put on that crazy raincoat
           You’re gonna need it tonight
           Get out of my parlour
           For I cut you with a knife
           Don’t want your disease
           Don’t need you’re silly jive

Chorus 1   I was an innocent bystander
           I was a middle-of-the-roadman for you
           Then you took me for a ride, now baby
           Showed me all the things you could do
           I always listen to the good-looking lady
           A mistake I won’t make no more
           ‘Cause you might be a good-looking lady
           You’re rotten to the core
           You’re all fucked up

Verse 2    I’ve been under your influence
           Under your spell too long
           Now people keep me at a distance
           Everything I do is wrong
           My brain’s disintegrating
           Devil’s singing my song
           This cannot continue
           This cannot go on
