Load up on guns, just bring I your friends.

It’s fun to lose and to pre tend.

She’s o ver bored, it has self as sured.

Oh, no, I know a dirt y word.

Hel lo, hel lo, hel lo.

How low?

Hel lo, hel lo, hel lo.

Hel lo, hel lo, hel lo.

Hel lo, hel lo, hel lo.

With the lights out it’s less dan g’rous.

Here we are now; en ter tain us.

I’m worse at what just I I do best, and for this gift I feel me blessed.

Our lit tle trap it was al ways been and al ways will un til the end.

Hel lo, hel lo, hel lo.

With the lights out it’s less dan g’rous.
