Swinging for the fences
Hanging from the moon
I cut my tongue on the rust of a silver spoon
I bet my billionth bottom dollar on a hopeless case
And now the devil on my shoulder has a knife to my face
Sometimes the short end of the stick is the sharpest
Sometimes the only road to take is the darkest
Sometimes all you gotta say is "Daddy, make it go away"
Sometimes the only way out is as a carcass
Chimp with a cigarette in a fifty cent zoo
Thanks God he ain't in the circus while he's watching you
I got too close to the furnace
I've been on both sides of the glass
But ain't nobody made a monkey out my monkey ass
Sometimes the short end of the stick is the sharpest
Sometimes the only road to take is the darkest
Sometimes all you gotta say is "Daddy, make it go away"
Sometimes the only way out is as a carcass
Sometimes you gotta finish what you shouldn't have started
Sometimes you gotta shoot before you see the target
Sometimes Daddy's gonna say, "You're not worth the price to pay"
Sometimes the tunnel only leads to darkness
You built this ship (you did, you did)
And you'll go down with it
Racing toward the mailbox
With a letter in your hand
But the postman's gone away, and you begin to understand
That you're no hero to this story
You're just another wretched pawn
Who bought his tickets to the sideshow
And then slept through the alarm
Sometimes the short end of the stick is the sharpest
Sometimes the only road to take is the darkest
Sometimes all you gotta say is "Daddy, make it go away"
Sometimes the only way out is as a carcass
Sometimes you gotta finish what you shouldn't have started
Sometimes you gotta shoot before you see the target
Sometimes Daddy's gonna say, "You're not worth the price to pay"
Sometimes the tunnel only leads to darkness
Sometimes the short end of the stick is the sharpest
Sometimes the only road to take is the darkest
Sometimes all you gotta say is "Daddy, make it go away"
Sometimes the only way out is as a carcass
Sometimes you gotta finish what you shouldn't have started
Sometimes you gotta shoot before you see the target
Sometimes Daddy's gonna say, "You're not worth the price to pay"
Sometimes the tunnel only leads to darkness
You built this ship
And you'll go down with it
Hanging from the moon
I cut my tongue on the rust of a silver spoon
I bet my billionth bottom dollar on a hopeless case
And now the devil on my shoulder has a knife to my face
Sometimes the short end of the stick is the sharpest
Sometimes the only road to take is the darkest
Sometimes all you gotta say is "Daddy, make it go away"
Sometimes the only way out is as a carcass
Chimp with a cigarette in a fifty cent zoo
Thanks God he ain't in the circus while he's watching you
I got too close to the furnace
I've been on both sides of the glass
But ain't nobody made a monkey out my monkey ass
Sometimes the short end of the stick is the sharpest
Sometimes the only road to take is the darkest
Sometimes all you gotta say is "Daddy, make it go away"
Sometimes the only way out is as a carcass
Sometimes you gotta finish what you shouldn't have started
Sometimes you gotta shoot before you see the target
Sometimes Daddy's gonna say, "You're not worth the price to pay"
Sometimes the tunnel only leads to darkness
You built this ship (you did, you did)
And you'll go down with it
Racing toward the mailbox
With a letter in your hand
But the postman's gone away, and you begin to understand
That you're no hero to this story
You're just another wretched pawn
Who bought his tickets to the sideshow

Sometimes the short end of the stick is the sharpest
Sometimes the only road to take is the darkest
Sometimes all you gotta say is "Daddy, make it go away"
Sometimes the only way out is as a carcass
Sometimes you gotta finish what you shouldn't have started
Sometimes you gotta shoot before you see the target
Sometimes Daddy's gonna say, "You're not worth the price to pay"
Sometimes the tunnel only leads to darkness
Sometimes the short end of the stick is the sharpest
Sometimes the only road to take is the darkest
Sometimes all you gotta say is "Daddy, make it go away"
Sometimes the only way out is as a carcass
Sometimes you gotta finish what you shouldn't have started
Sometimes you gotta shoot before you see the target
Sometimes Daddy's gonna say, "You're not worth the price to pay"
Sometimes the tunnel only leads to darkness
You built this ship
And you'll go down with it
