Wind Up

[Verse 1] I have a choice between the bat or the belt Each time I hear about the hand you've been dealt Spare me confession It's confession you sell Maybe I'll fall behind But I don't mind Because I'll catch up [Interlude] I want a song that's indelible Like manimal I hope you never see me wind up [Verse 2] Will I be happy on the back of the shelf Will you be happy when we're sharing a cell Spare me your questions since you know me so well Someday you'll realize That I get shy and I choke up [Chorus] I want a song that's indelible Like manimal I hope you never see me wind up What is wrong with this animal I'm terrible I hope you never see me wind up [Bridge] Farewell my sweet paramania Farewell my sweet paramania [Verse 3] My only promise is that I'll never tell Keep you at a distance from the things that I felt I'll bite the bullet Take the beating Until I take it back anyway What was I supposed to say? [Chorus]
