The mayor

Ooh, it´s scrambled eggs what he says
He accuses me of treachery
Got the nine lies, got the wide eyes,
got a failing grade in chemistry
If you count back to the balcony
when all we saw was a mystery
of a blonde-haired boy brought his mother joy
with his pedigree and family tree
Oh, lay it all out on a wicker couch
that you wove in a loony bin
Cut it out, it´s a second-round bout
not the way of a gentleman
Ah, give it up, get a job,
take a pill and leave me be
He´s got a synapse lapse he don´t think he has
but it´s been proven empirically
"If they take something precious from me,
I´m gonna take something precious from them."
Oh now he´s losing his constituency,
we thought "Oh, this could never happen again."
If I take something precious from him,
he try to take something precious from me
There´s a battle in his head that he cannot win
There´s a man that he could never be
Oh no
Way to go
He´s the mayor
Oh, I´m quite tired of this lunatic
Why must we suffer ´cuz the mayor´s sick?
He say: "All abandon from this sinking ship."
and he´s off on another trip
No, he don´t care about environment
He has made this a shitty place
My interest rate shrinks at a rapid pace
compounded daily on my worried face
"If they take something precious from me,
I´m gonna take something precious from them."
Oh now he´s losing his constituency,
we thought "Oh, this could never happen again."
If I take something precious from him,
he try to take something precious from me
There´s a battle in his head that he cannot win
There´s a man that he could never be
Oh no
Way to go (2x)
He´s the mayor
"If they take something precious from me,
I´m gonna take something precious from them."
Oh now he´s losing his constituency,
we thought "Oh, this could never happen again."
(You´re gonna hang your head and cry)
If I take something precious from him,
he try to take something precious from me
There´s a battle in his head that he cannot win
There´s a man that he could never be
(go ahead, go ahead and cry)
You´re gonna hang your head and cry
Your gonna hang your head and cry
you´re gonna cry
(He´s the mayor)
