Sweetness, sweetness I was only joking
When I said I’d like to smash every tooth
In your head
Sweetness, sweetness I was only joking
When I said by rights you should be
Bludgeoned in your bed
And now I know how Joan of Arc felt
Now I know how Joan of Arc felt
As the flames rose to her Roman nose
And her walkman started to melt
Bigmouth
Bigmouth
Bigmouth strikes again
And I’ve got no right to take my place
To the Human race
Bigmouth
Bigmouth
Bigmouth strikes again
And I’ve got no right to take my place
To the Human race
Bigmouth
Bigmouth
Bigmouth strikes again
And I’ve got no right to take my place
To the Human race
Bigmouth
Bigmouth
Bigmouth strikes again
And I’ve got no right to take my place
To the Human race…
