lyrics

Well...

Organic creatures rising out of the moss on the bathroom wall
Organic creatures crawling out of the slime of the freezing moat
Well, the dog's got telekinesis
You can tell by the way he watches the whole room float

Ah...

Nazis kicking down the door as you scream and claw out your eyes
Nazis in my house erupt hysterical tensions as they reach up and claw at your thighs
And the dog's got telekinesis
You can see it in the glow around him when he flies

Roping the giant praying mantis out on the glowing moons of Texas
Heal the giant praying mantis and teach him to sing at dawn
Give them psychic tortures and give them sight when the shell flexes
Rope them down, paint their eyes and leave them grazing on my lawn

(I can just hear them tiny hairs a-poppin' and a-snappin')

Nazis punching out the ceiling, punching holes in my wall
Sing to me about the homeland, yell at me in my shower stall
Well, Nazis breaking at the plaster, tell me about recording my phone calls
Wait outside the door with Herbalife products
And a praying mantis about eight feet tall
Kick down, kick down, you tripped a landmine
And giant mushrooms will swell up and explode wherever you fall
(And then there were three)

Ripped out, ripped out, you got to give me a better reason
To unleash these praying mantis things
Rip it out, rip it out, give me my boots back
Before I see the waves of leaping armadillo wings
And the dog's got telekinesis
You got to notice by the way the frozen electrode ghost sings
