911
There's a riot in the kitchen and the bed's on fire
There's a locket in my pocket that I can't find
Oh I'm at the window whistling in the wind
I'm at my own front door and I can't get in
I'm dialing up 911
I'm on the brink of trouble again
If you could change the time, a little
Then everything else would be
Fine, fine, fine
Tell me do you have a home-made remedy
The only time we talk is in your sleep
Oh he likes mornings, I like the Moon
It's a typical case of too late, too soon
I'm dialing up 911
I'm on the brink of trouble again
If you could change the time, a little
Then everything else would be
Fine, fine, fine
My back is in the corner
My boat is taking on water
You can't wrap fire up in paper
And you can't rap your way out of here
Oh I like mornings, he likes the Moon
It's a typical case of too late, too soon
I'm dialing up 911
911
There's a riot in the kitchen and the bed's on fire
There's a locket in my pocket that I can't find
Oh I'm at the window whistling in the wind
I'm at my own front door and I can't get in
I'm dialing up 911
I'm on the brink of trouble again
If you could change the time, a little
Then everything else would be
Fine, fine, fine
Tell me do you have a home-made remedy
The only time we talk is in your sleep
Oh he likes mornings, I like the Moon
It's a typical case of too little, too soon
I'm dialing up 911
I'm on the brink of trouble again
If you could change the time, a little
Then everything else would be
Fine, fine, fine
My back is in the corner
My boat is taking on water
You can't wrap fire up in paper
And you can't rap your way out of here
Oh I like mornings, he likes the Moon
It's a typical case of too late, too soon
I'm dialing up 911
