Lyrics & Translation

[English]

No, Billy, I haven't done that dance since my wife died

...

There's a whole crowd of people out there

Who need to learn how to do the Scarn

Don't ask questions you don't wanna know

Learned my lesson way too long ago

To be talking to you, belladonna

Shoulda taken a break, not an Oxford comma

Take what I want when I wanna

And I want ya

Bad, bad news

One of us is gonna lose

I'm the powder, you're the fuse

Just add some friction

You are my strange addiction

You are my strange addiction

My doctors can't explain

My symptoms or my pain

But you are my strange addiction

I'm really, really sorry, I think I was just relieved

To see that Micheal Scarn got his confidence back

Yeah, Michael, the movie is amazing, though

It's like, one of the best movies I've ever seen in my life

Deadly fever, please don't ever break

Be my reliever 'cause I don't self-medicate

And it burns like a gin and I like it

Put your lips on my skin, and you might ignite it

Hurts, but I know how to hide it

Kinda like it

Bad, bad news

One of us is gonna lose

I'm the powder, you're the fuse

Just add some friction

You are my strange addiction

You are my strange addiction

My doctors can't explain

My symptoms or my pain

But you are my strange addiction

...

Bite my glass, set myself on fire

Can't you tell I'm a crass? Can't you tell I'm wired?

Tell me "nothing lasts," like I don't know

You could kiss my-, asking about my motto

You should enter in festivals, or carnivals

Thoughts? Pretty good reaction

It's pretty cool, right?

You are my strange addiction

You are my strange addiction

My doctors can't explain

My symptoms or my pain

But you are my strange addiction

...

Did you like it? Did you like that?

Um, which part?
