Lyrics[]

Sun flashing red and then orange, then opting for secession
On the day when you come to the door with your terrible confession
And I know you've come to take my toys away
And I know you've come to take my toys away

Skin flushing red and then glowing when you come inside
And the moonlight watching all over you, I have got my mouth open wide
And I know you've come to take my toys away
And I know you've come to take my toys away
Oh and when it drops you're gonna feel it 
Oh yeah
Oh yeah
