Huddle up, huddle up, huddle up Huddle up, huddle up, huddle up Huddle up, huddle up, huddle up Huddle up, huddle up, huddle up Huddle up to the moon above Huddle up and start a witches’ coven Huddle up like a wounded dove Huddle up, cause the rest don’t stop This is for the girls, who like to rule the world But were told to best behave This is for the boys, who like to share their toys And all the things that we crave I know they’re bringing you down I know they’re bringing you down Monophobia, monophobia Monophobia, monophobia Monophobia, monophobia Monophobia, monophobia We hear the poison all of the time We just don’t let it get to our minds We hear the poison all of the time But it’s cool, we spread out We hear the poison all of the time We just don’t let it get to our minds We hear the poison all of the time But it’s cool, we spread out We hear the poison all of the time We just don’t let it get to our minds We hear the poison all of the time But it’s cool, we spread out, we don’t Huddle up to the moon above Huddle up and start a witches’ coven Huddle up like a wounded dove Huddle up, cause the rest don’t stop I know they’re bringing you down I know they’re bringing you down I know they’re bringing you down Don’t let them bring you down Huddle up, huddle up, huddle up Huddle up, huddle up, huddle up Huddle up, huddle up, huddle up Huddle up, huddle up, huddle up Huddle up, huddle up, huddle up Huddle up, huddle up, huddle up Huddle up, huddle up, huddle up Huddle up, huddle up, huddle up

Wonder why my baby ain’t home He’s got a bad bad habit that he can’t let go Dirty nails and a strange cologne He’s just a filthy filthy animal Come home and love me Come home and curl up above me Come home and love me Come home, come home, come home Only comes when I’m in the kitchen Tell him so many things, but he never listens Gives me love so that I’m not sad Then turns around and leaves me for dead Come home and love me Come home and curl up above me Come home and love me Come home, come home, come home He’s got another on his tail and he aint afraid to show it He went out for a kill and he aint afraid to show it He’s got another on his tail and he aint afraid to show it He went out for a kill and he aint afraid to show it Come home and love me Come home and curl up above me Come home and love me Come home, come home, come home Come home and love me Come home and curl up above me Come home and love me Come home, come home, come home

lyrics

You’re born, get dressed Finish school and leave the nest Get a job, get a partner Settle down and care for each other Are you sure that you sucked the apple dry Can’t wait till you’re old enough to die The time is ticking, for all those jobs you’re clicking The time is ticking, for all those jobs you’re clicking The time is ticking Nullified, are the dreams that you have kept inside Terrified, can you tell that you have lived your life What’s with all these thoughts that keep spinning The problem is that, your heart is not in it What’s with all these thoughts that keep spinning The problem is that, your heart is not in it Wait, the hour’s too late You’re not done, so let’s kick up the heart rate Hate, is how it translates But it’s cause you said farewell to the welfare state It only gets worse, straight to the hearse The passing of time, dressed as a mime You go to your job, you feel like a knob The sound you hear’s tick tock Nullified, are the dreams that you have kept inside Terrified, can you tell that you have lived your life What’s with all these thoughts that keep spinning The problem is that, your heart is not in it What’s with all these thoughts that keep spinning The problem is that, your heart is not in it

What’d you think about life And all the things you’ve done twice Ready or not, ready or not Come out, come out, come out Or hide One mississippi, two mississippi, three mississippi Ten mississippi Running around, running around Running around, running, or hide Running around, running around Running around, running around If you’re not seeking, then you’ll probably get found Running around, running around Running around, running around Ssh, ssh, ssh… get found Leave it alone, leave it alone Leave it alone, this is our place to hide If we put too many people in here, Then we will all not survive Leave me alone, leave me alone Leave me alone, this is my place to hide It’s the many other people we fear So let them seek and we’ll just hide. Running around, running around Running around, running around If you’re not seeking, then you’ll probably get found Running around, running around Running around, running around And if you’re caught and killed by them Count to ten and start all over again One mississippi, two mississippi Three mississippi, four mississippi Five mississippi, six mississippi Seven, seven, seven Seven mississippi, eight mississippi Nine mississippi Ten, ten, ten mississippi HIDE
