Hello operator, give me no-man's-land
Collect call to no one at all
Been yelling into an empty closet
To the point of no return (and no deposit)

Fiddlin and watchin while Rome boins
A roll of the dice: The woim toins

Hello central, give me no-man's-land
From a walking waste disposal unit
A transfusion from me'd kill the faint of heart

Alas poor Yorick
I knew me well
But I've been killing my brain cell-by-cell
It only take a bullet to make the woim toin
And this one's for you

Toll is belling
The signs is telling
Nose is running
Feet are smelling
Currently less than a human wreck
Give me a break!
Start at the neck
[Chorus]
I rule my body from the throne of agony
My conscience and constitution's nagging me
Clock up another tracheotomy
Stab another dagger inna back o' me
The dark god's boint ma evil soul
My brittle spirit's toint to coal
I rule my body from the throne of agony
The throne of agony
Agony

Chalk up a frozen pizza
Choke up another thousand Marlboros
Anything goes for them ordinary Joes
They'll cut off your face to spite your nose
I don't need to touch their toes
To know I've already reached my all time low
Pacin' ruts inna carpet
Eatin' up the wallpaper
Crawlin' the walls
Sick on the ceiling
Dead in the head
Shut the shutters
I should have stayed in bed
Complainin' bout ma campaign
Against personal decency
I got no excuses
Rules wrapped in barbed wire
Laced with broken glass
Yeah, I'm the one who gave the sandwich to Mama Cass
I rule ma body from the throne of agony
Ma conscience and constitution's naggin me
Clock up another tracheotomy
STAB another dagger inna back o' me
The dark gods boint ma evil SOUL
Ma brittle spirit's toint ta COAL
I rule ma body from the throne of agony
THE THRONE OF AGONY
THE THRONE OF AGONY
AGONY

Stoke up and poke up my funeral pyre
And watch my life flicker before your very eyes
With no commercial breaks...NO BREAKS
NO BRAKES...(kill me baby)

Pour another glass of liquid clear king alcohol
Drinkin hard to not remember what I'd just as soon forget
String around the finger
Rope around the neck

You always hate the one you love
Time dies when your having fun
I'm gonna change my name...
I'm changing trains...(kill me baby)
I'm on the throne of agony
My conscience is naggin' me
Cock up another tracheotomy
Stab another dagger inna back of me
The dark gods boint ma evil soul
My brittle spirit's toint ta coal
I rule my body from the throne of agony
I rule my body from the throne of agony
The throne of agony
Agony
Agony
Agony
Agony
Agony
Agony
Agony
