[Verse 1]
I slip away
I slipped on a little white lie
I slip away
I slipped on a little white lie

[Verse Two]
We've got heads on sticks
And you've got ventriloquists
We've got heads on sticks
And you've got ventriloquists

[Verse Three]
Standing in the shadows at the end of my bed (We've got heads on sticks)
Standing in the shadows at the end of my bed (And you've got ventriloquists)
Lying in the shadows at the end of my bed (Standing in the shadows at the end of my bed)
Standing in the shadows at the end of my bеd (Standing in the shadows at the end of my bеd)
Lying in the shadows at the end of my bed
Standing in the shadows at the end of my bed

[Outro]
The rats and the children follow me out of town
Rats and children follow me out of their homes

Come on, kids (The rats and the children follow me out of town)
Rats and children follow me out of their homes
Come on, kids
