[Intro]

(Where the fuck are my keys?)


[Verse 1]

Been given the keys

I knew I'd receive, be careful

What you're asking for

Thy rod and thy staff

Simply twelve-toned math, an earful

Opening all doors


[Verse 2]

Simon the Roman

Gone fishin' for man, if you're caught

Is to be freed

Come open your lock

By using a rock or sowing

The proper seeds


[Instrumental Bridge]


[Verse 3]

Woe to thee, all women

Of land, air, and sea

Adam was the serpent

Apple 'tween his knees

Seduced by a snake

Worshipped by nations

Banished forth from Eden

It's the male who is Satan, Satan


[Verse 4]

From the tree of knowledge

A metaphor for sex

Plucked a ripened globe of fruit

That of innocence

Since forbidden, resisted

Forcing her to taste

And now I know why girls hate boys

'Cause Eve was in fact raped, raped


[Interlude]

You ain't goin' nowhere

Everybody ready? Let's go


[Outro]

We ain't goin' home, got nowhere to go

We ain't goin' home, got nowhere to go

We ain't goin' home, got nowhere to go

We ain't goin' home, got nowhere to go

Nowhere to go

Nowhere to go

(Come on)

(You come on)

We ain't goin' home, got nowhere to go

We ain't goin' home, got nowhere to go

We ain't goin' home, got nowhere to go

We ain't goin' home, got nowhere to go

Nowhere to go

Nowhere to go

Nowhere to go
