lyrics

MANNISH BOY

HEY LITTLE MANNISH BOY YOU GOT ME DOWN
WITH YOUR HEAD OFF IN THE CLOUDS
AND YOUR FEET DON’T TOUCH THE GROUND

HEY LITTLE MANNISH BOY JUST SHUT YOUR HOLE
YOU CAN WHIMPER FROM THE PAIN
BUT DID YOU HAVE TO SELL YOUR SOUL

AND EVERYTHING I HAD I GAVE TO YOU
I EVEN KNELT TO KISS YOUR SWOLLEN HEAD
IF YOU THINK THAT I WANT YOU DEAD THAT’S TRUE
I’M NOT HAPPY BUT I DO, I’M NOT HAPPY BUT I DO

SO HELP ME
WATCH ME YEAH
BELIEVE ME
WATCH ME

HEY LITTLE MANNISH BOY MY WOUNDED SAINT
ALL THE DEAD YOU LEFT BEHIND
ALL THE PICTURES THAT YOU PAINT

HEY LITTLE MANNISH BOY LOOK WHAT YOU’VE DONE
THE DISEASES SIX STRING JESUS GOT NO SOUL

AND EVERYTHING I HAD I GAVE TO YOU
I EVEN KNELT TO KISS YOUR SWOLLEN HEAD
IF YOU THINK THAT I WANT YOU DEAD THAT’S TRUE
I’M NOT HAPPY BUT I DO, I’M NOT HAPPY BUT I DO

SO HELP ME
WATCH ME YEAH
BELIEVE ME
WATCH ME

STEP OUT OF YOUR HOLE YOU’RE OUT OF YOUR HEAD
YOUR FRIENDS WISH YOU DEAD
YOU’VE BEEN LIVING IN A LONELY PLACE FOR ALL YOUR LIFE

YOUR LIES HAVE LEFT ME COLD
YOUR’E HEADED FOR THE GRAVE
LIVING IN A LONELY PLACE
SO HELP ME
WATCH ME YEAH
BELIEVE ME
WATCH ME YEAH
WATCH ME YEAH
WATCH ME YEAH
WATCH ME YEAH
WATCH ME YEAH

OOH WATCH ME AHHH
