[Intro]

Hex, there's an X

Put the X back into hex

Sex, there's an X

Put the X back into hex

Hex, sure, sure


[Chorus]

You can never love a civilian

You can never, never, never learn

Or we'll cut a piece from your very hand


[Verse 1]

Well, I'm sure we'll get around to sex, oh

Put an X to whatever's left

You're a sheet thief

But I say, oh, pleasure just springs from a leaf

Seems like some people ignite from everywhere (Uh-huh)

And don't give a crack jack

That's what you call a friend?

That's what you call a friend


[Refrain]

You sit in space (Wow), a beautiful waste (Woo)

You fall on your face 'cause you think of nothing

Nothing can make you remember

One thing will make you forget


[Verse 2]

How can we live with obsessions like these

We take them into our hearts

Holy hearts hope they never leave

Oh, how can we ever let them breathe


[Pre-Chorus]

Hex, whatever's next

He's feeling vexed

He touched me in my sleep

But it's not over yet


[Chorus]

You can never love a civilian

You can never, never, never learn

Oh, we're all going to burn

And you just drew the longest fuse


[Refrain]

You sit in space, a beautiful waste

You fall on your face 'cause you think of nothing

Nothing can make you remember

One thing will make you forget

The fear of your fall, in love and war


[Post-Chorus]

I feel no more

Feel no more

Expect no more

Expect no more


[Interlude]

Ah, la-la-la-la-la-la

Sex!

Put the X back into sex


[Pre-Chorus]

Hex, what happens next?

He's feeling vexed

He touched me in my sleep

But it's not over yet


[Chorus]

You can never love a civilian

You can never, never, never learn

Oh, we're all going to burn

And you just drew the longest fuse


[Refrain]

You sit in space (Wow), a beautiful waste (Woo)

You fall on your face 'cause you think of nothing

Nothing can make you remember

One thing will make you forget

The fear of regret in love and war


[Bridge]

Take the H from ache

And the E is between

Put the X back into hex

Take the Xual from Sexual

And the E is wet

But the X gets buried alive

Take the H from ache

And the E is between

Put the T back into rex!


[Outro]

X back into, X back into

X back into, wow-wow-wow-wow
