Intro:     

Verse 1:

I'm making my escape, making my escape
                   
I tell myself that everything's in shape
                              
Everything's in shape, but me

How long can we stay, how long can we stay?
                   
I tell myself that everything is great
                                         
Everything is great, Well how am I doing?


Chorus:
                     
   I've got a great idea
                          
I'm going to wait right here
                   
I've got a great idea
                          
I'm going to wait right here
                                
While everything is adding...Up, up, up
                            
Everything is adding...Up, up, up


Verse 2:
Breaking both my hands,
Breaking both my hands
Telling me to 'take it like a man'
Take it like a man, I can't
I don't understand, I don't understand
Please repeat whatever you just said
Nothing's making sense,
Well how am I doing?

Verse 3:
They're breaking both my hands,
They're breaking both my hands
They're telling me to 'take it like a man'
Take it like a man, well fuck that
I don't understand, said,
I don't understand
So please repeat whatever you just said
'Cause nothing's making sense,
Well how am I doing?

Chorus x1
