VERSE 1
                                                  
I had visions I was in them I was looking into the mirror
                                                  
To see a little bit clearer, the rottenness and evil in me
                                                             
Fingertips have memories mine can't forget the curves of your body
                                                        
And when I feel a bit naughty, I run it up the flagpole and see

Who salutes, but no one ever does

CHORUS
                                                     
I'm not sick but I'm not well, and I'm so hot, cause I'm in hell

VERSE 2
                                                           
Been around the world and found that only stupid people are breeding
                                                    
The cretins cloning and feeding, and I don't even own a tv
                                                      
Put me in the hospital for nerves and then they had to commit me
                                                
You told them all I was crazy, they cut off my legs now

I'm an amputee god damn you

CHORUS
                                                     
I'm not sick but I'm not well, and I'm so hot, cause I'm in hell
                                                   
I'm not sick but I'm not well, and it's a sin, to live so well

BRIDGE
                                       
I wanna publish 'zines, and rage against machines
                                               
I wanna pierce my tongue, it doesn't hurt, it feels fine
                                         
The trivial sublime, I'd like to turn off time
            /                       /
and kill my mind,        you kill my mind

VERSE 3
                                             
Paranoia, paranoia, everybody's comin' to get me
                                                      
Just say you never met me, I'm going underground with the moles 

to get holes
                                                                
Hear the voices in my head I swear to god it sounds like they're snoring
                                                      
But if you're bored then you're boring, the agony and the irony

they're killing me...woah

CHORUS
                                                      
I'm not sick but I'm not well, and I'm so hot, cause I'm in hell
                                                     
I'm not sick but I'm not well, and it's a sin, to live this well
