Lyrics
1.
When the first car hit the wall
Was the gulit still in or head?
In your magic crystal ball
Is the poweer that made you mad
You can't save yourself, it's a pleasure cruise
You're damned for a million years
2.
There's a viper in your bedroom
Under the sheets is tarantula fuzz
When she bites, she bites for murder
I bleed the Addams Family blood
There's a spell on me that I can't reverse
It's a sympathy cross you burn
Chorus
Cure me.. Or Kill me..
But don't leave me here for dead
Again
Cure me.. Or Kill me..
But don't leave me here for dead
Again
3.
This is your last happy Christmas
Your worst Birthday party
The cyanide in your poison ring
Wouldn't cure my misery
Don't bury me when I'm history
I think you'll find an easy way out
