Bum, ba, da, bum, ba, da, bum
Bum, ba, da, bum, ba, da, da, da, dum

I'm gonna fight 'em off
A seven nation army couldn't hold me back
They're gonna rip it off
Taking their time right behind my back
And I'm talkin' to myself at night
Because I can't forget
Back and forth through my mind
Behind a cigarette

Now the message comin' from my eyes, say, "leave it alone"

Bum, ba, da, bum, ba, da, da, da, dum

Don't wanna hear about it
Every single one's got a story to tell
Everyone knows about it
From the Queen of England to the hounds of hell
And if I catch ya comin' back my way
I'm gonna serve it to you
And that ain't what you want to hear
But that's what I'll do

And the feeling coming from my bones says find a home

Bum, ba, da, bum, ba, da, da, da, dum

I'm going to Wichita
Far from this opera forevermore
Now, I'm gonna work the straw
Make the sweat drip out of every pore
And I'm bleeding, and I'm bleeding, and I'm bleeding
Right before the lord
All the words are gonna bleed from me
And I will think no more

Now the stains coming from my blood, tell me, "go back home"
Go back home

Bum, ba, dum, bum, bum, bum
