Lyrics
A terrible silence shook a crowd

To giving the blame to me, no oh

Said, "I’m giving my best bluff, I’m giving my best bluff, a push in the eye, to peer around it."

But I’m a snake in the grass girl

You better watch out, I might strike

In my hard-on, I'm running as fast as I can

And here we go to save the world

If my hard-on is broken then

I could just run faster

But I’m a bastard

I see myself at the bottom of a barrel

She looked, looked in there and couldn’t see me

Said "No, look down! The tiny squiggle-like worm, that sits in the disgusting whiz that fills up the bottle!"

In my hard-on, I'm running as fast as I can

And here we go to save the world

And I’m a bastard!

I’m a bastard, no oh!

In my hard-on, I'm running as fast as I can

And here we go to save the world

If my hard-on is broken then

I could just run faster

But I’m a bastard
