Lyrics[]

Cut out the lightbulb
Put gunpowder in the light
And then I screw the lightbulb back into the socket
And then I turn on the light.
It will blow this place from here to hell.
It will blow this place from here to hell.

If I open up the front door
And then I open up the back door
And then I open up the windows all the way
It may cool down in here.
I could use a little cool air.
I could use a little cool air.

If I said what I'd been meaning to say
If my headache ever goes away
It'll surely cost me dearly.
It'll surely cost me dearly.
It'll surely cost me dearly.
