[Verse 1]

Suck and suck

Sucking up all you can

Sucking up all you can suck and suck

Working up under my patience like a little tick

Fat little parasite

Suck me dry

My fruit is bruised and borrowed

You thieving bastards

You have turned my blood cold and bitter

Beat my compassion black and blue


[Chorus]

Hope this is what you wanted

Hope this is what you had in mind

'Cause this is what you're getting

I hope you're choking

I hope you choke on this

I hope you're choking

I hope you choke on this


[Verse 2]

Taken all I can, taken all I can, I can take

Taken all you can, taken all you can, we can take

Got nothing left to give to you

Blood-sucking parasitic little tick

Blood-sucking parasitic little

Blood-sucking parasitic little tick

Take what you want and then go


[Chorus]

Hope this is what you wanted

Hope this is what you had in mind

'Cause this is what you're getting


[Bridge]

Suck me dry

Suck, suck me dry

Sucking me dry

Suck, suck me dry


[Chorus]

Is this what you wanted?

Is this what you had in mind?

Is this what you wanted?

'Cause this is what you're getting

I hope, I hope, I hope you choke
