Lyrics
Come put me in your machine

I think you know what I mean

We're way beyond keeping clean

Put up or shut up, eh

You feed me meat, feed me wine

Showing your girl of the time

Thinking your thoughts are sublime

But you're a criminal

You make a volcano freeze

And bring a king to his knees

Now look who's aiming to please

You eat a cannibal

Impervious to the pain

You keep on tapping that vein

Drink heaven's chemical rain

The spin fanatic

Goodbye mama's sisters babies

Nothing soft remained

Trapped in this elevator

Are you entertained?

I'll press the panic button

Help is coming soon

Try to calm your agitation

Careful, you'll cocoon

Goodbye mama's sisters babies

Nothing soft remained

Trapped in this elevator

Are you entertained?

I'll press the panic button

Help is coming soon

Try to calm your agitation

Careful, you'll cocoon

The blessed get with your code

And pray to carry your load

Follow the bloody brick road

Cause you're the wizard, oh
