"Sorcerer's Apprentice" lyrics

Remember me, I used to be
The corpse you were dissecting
What pies have you got fingers in?
What shrines are you erecting?
How am I? Well, I survived
The jams you got me into
There's things I still don't understand
And maybe it's a sin to, but I begin to

It dawns on me that you're not quite well
You're not quite compos mentis
I don't want this job no more
The sorcerer's apprentice
I'll walk on hot coals any old day
Drill me deep at the dentist
Torture me, but I just can't be
The sorcerer's apprentice
Some happy day I'll be far away

We were all tied up in knots
You thought you could unravel
What twisted truth is in your head?
What is that road you travel?
Old Federico knew you well, the circus freak ringmaster
Led us all a merry dance to the threshold of disaster
And papered over all the cracks with a giant sticky plaster, disaster

It dawns on me that you're not quite well
You're not quite compos mentis
I don't want this job no more
The sorcerer's apprentice
I'll walk on hot coals any old day
Drill me deep at the dentist
Torture me, but I just can't be
The sorcerer's apprentice
Some happy day I'll be far away

I'll walk on hot coals any old day
Drill me deep at the dentist
Torture me, but I just can't be
The sorcerer's apprentice
Some happy day I'll be far away
