Sick To Death

I'm sick to death of my teacher
They're just failures on a power trip
I'm sick to death of my parents
They wanted to wreck a life so they had a kid
I'm sick to death with all the school sportsmen
Walking round like their dicks are glass
I'm sick to death of the moronic head
Trying to make us all go to mass
Yeah I'm going to walk out
Yeah I've done it before
I'm sick to death of it all
I'm sick to death of the politician
His brain's caved in, he's just salivary glands
I'm sick to death of the quasi-hippes
They can't move for the time on their hands
I'm sick to death of all their girlfriends
Gonna be dust titted birth tanks in ten years time
I'm sick to death of this radio DJ
Under the banter she's begging for death
Going to walk out yeah
Yeah I've done it before
I'm sick of it all
I'm sick to death of my doe eyed girlfriends
I'm sick to death of party time
I'm sick to death of all these folk pop singers
I wish they would all die
I'm sick to death
I'm sick to death
I'm sick to death
I'm sick to death

They say I'm cheap?
Well I don't know what they're talking about
They say I'm cheap
Well I don't know what they're on about
Just 'cause I'm in deep every weekend
They're jealous of my reputation
At least, this way I'm never alone
Pah!
They say I'm cheap?
Yeah, I know what they been saying about me
'Cause I reek of
Chance taking, pussy footing out back doors
In the morning
Just 'cause I'm fake as a fly circus
Fraudulent with a capital F
Well, if you haven't heard my name round here
Baby, you must be deaf
They say I'm cheap?
Well I don't know what they're talking about
They say I'm cheap?
Well I don't know what they're on about
Just 'cause I'm in deep every weekend
They're jealous of my reputation
At least, this way I'm never alone
Pah!
They say "Ha! That's rich"
No, I'm cheap

They're laying their eggs,
Doing it on my head
I got nits!
They're keeping me home
Until the nitties are gone
I got nits!
They're UFO but I'm street candy, got nits
All these girls and not one of them friendly, got nits!
It's the pits.
Where did they come from and why did the nits pick me?
Was it 'cause I was down on Betty when I skipped PE?
I'm itching and I'm scratching
And I'm rolling on the floor
I got nits!
Get rid of them baby, shave them off
It will rid me of nits!
It's the pits.
Whatever it takes baby, but get that
Mayonnaise away from me!
Get me a comb and the nit killing shampoo OK?
Die you nits!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm supposed to be at the dance tonight,
these damn nits!!!!
I'll bring them along, dressed up as my entourage
I got nits!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
They're laying their eggs,
Doing it on my head
I got nits!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
They're keeping me home until the nitties are gone
I got niiiiiitttts!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
They got 8 legs and I'm out of my head, I got nits!!!!!
I'm street candy for them and they're landing on me baby
GOT NITS!!!!!!
