Select language to translate this lyric
i bought right into this
sucked right in by a devil s kiss
so sweet and poisonous
but all substance did it lack
left my system out of whack
and i want my money back
(good luck with that jack)
this is the snake oil capital of the world x6
it was a house of cards
fell apart in a million shards
it hit me very hard
you sold me a bag of air
gave me a bible made me swear
the old weird america
(never went anywhere)
snake oil capital of the world x3
i practise mass hypnosis
you ll get sucked in by osmosis
but here comes my gnostic gnosis
(and guess what my gross is)
i m suffering from psychosis
but i ll give you my diagnosis
you need my medicine
(in massive doses)
don t run against the tide
don t turn around and hide
don t stand up for your side
it s the wrong one
don t think that you can think
don t blink you have to blink
don t drink you have to drink
and that dose is a strong one
