Temper Temper

Temper, temper
I never wanted to be
Temper, temper
I never wanted to be
Mr., Mr.
I can't hold it in.
No...
Never, never
I had a feeling this would
Never, never
I had a feeling this would never leave,
I've got a wick to burn my skin.
So I bottled it up and kept the words to myself
and let the anger collect for a better day.
When the words are aged,
The war is waged,
And you'll watch me blow.
I can be your powder keg.
If you can be my fuse.
Clever, clever
Give me a reason to be
Clever, clever
Give me a reason to be
Placing all my trust in your hands.
No...
Never, never
Don't even fuck with me,
Never, never
I tell myself that I know,
but I'll never know more than your name.
Don't, don't, don't, don't, don't worry doll,
I only kill him in my sleep.
Knock, knock, knock, knock, knock at your door.
You know I will send him out to sea.
