There's something wrong with me
That's why I wrote this note
I've joined the writers who believe they have the antidote
So I will go quickly now
Leave breadcrumbs on the street
I'll feel much better
After
I take my maternal leave

Let out a sign, pretend to die
You're going to need an alibi --
A broken arm, the same smell...
So just relax -- no one will tell

That brings you down
That brings you down
You've gotta keep
Bringing me down
It stings me all over again
It's the same dream --
In the back of my head
In the back of my head...

(Lock me up, lock me up
Lock me up, lock me up
Lock me up, lock me up
Lock me up, lock me up
Lock me up.)
I've been collecting stones I --
I'll think I'll throw at you (at you)
I can't forget your face
I'm sorry, dear, but that's my cue &
I'll be the first to leave
& return with the rain
Just keep your ears open &
One day you might hear me sing!

Let out a sign, pretend to die
You're going to need an alibi --
A broken arm, the same smell...
Just relax -- no one'll know

That brings you down
That brings you down
You've gotta keep
Bringing me down
It stings me all over again
It's the same dream --
In the back of my head
In the back of my head

(Lock me up, lock me up
Lock me up, lock me up
Lock me up, lock me up
Lock me up) LOCK ME UP
[solo]

LOCK ME UP
LOCK ME UP
LOCK ME UP
LOCK ME UP (Lock me away)
LOCK ME UP (Lock me away)
LOCK ME UP (Lock me away)
LOCK ME UP (Lock me away)
LOCK ME UP (No one will know.)
