"Do The Parasite!" lyrics

Sharing fleas and hotel keys
May the sacrifice to the gods of sleep
Said, won't you wake me up for sweet release?
Be sure not to disturb the beast

I'm down again, wearing thin out on the rails again
Then listen to me scream
I said, down the drain like the pain, don't tell me you are sane
Listen to me scream

Everybody's doing the parasite
Said, all the young villains and thieves
Talk is cheap, revenge is in
I got an ace hidden up my sleeve
Yes, I do

Said dry your tears and draw your knife
Well, it's eye for eye and strife for strife
Bread and circus, lies and wine
A dandy dresses to the nines
That's right

Down again, wearing thin out on the rails again
Listen to me scream
Down the drain like the pain, don't tell me you are sane
Listen to me scream
I said, listen to me scream

Everybody's doing the parasite
Said, all the young villains and thieves
The talk is cheap, and revenge is in
An ace up my sleeve
Yeah, yeah, everybody's doing the parasite
Huh, said, do you know what I mean?
Hit the door when the lights go out
Forget about what you've seen

Yeah, get down

Yeah, I said, everybody's doing the parasite
Said, all the young villains and thieves
I said talk is cheap, revenge is in
There's an ace up my sleeve
I said, everybody's doing the parasite
Oh, do you know what I mean?
I said, hit the door when the lights go out
Forget about what you've seen

Huh, yeah, don't ask me
Yeah, 'cause I ain't seen nothing
