* Used to be a bunch of assholes that lived in this part of the building, here...But we systematically removed them like you would any kind of termite or roach * **spoken prelude**

Someone told me once
that there's a right and wrong
punishment was cure
to those who dare to cross the line.
But it must not be true
for jerk-offs just like you.
Maybe it takes longer to catch a total asshole.
but I'm tired of waiting.

Someone told me once
that there's a right and wrong,
punishment was cure

But it must not be true
for jerk-offs just like you.
and maybe it's just bullshit
I should play god
and shoot you myself.
tired of waiting.

Consequences dictate
course of action
and it doesn't matter what's right
It's only wrong if you get caught.
If consequences dictate
my course of action i should
I should play god
and just shoot you myself.
tired of waiting.

(die now)? **confirmed, but is whispered in background.**

shoot it
kick it
fuck it
shoot you in your fucking head.

**note: these are the lyrics sung on record. stage versions contain countless variations, and Maynard's original transcripts posted online are different again.**
