Falling spikes follow me home.
Falling spikes pierce my shadow.
Shatter the sidewalk at my feet.
Through the ceiling while I sleep.
Everyone I knew split in two.
Falling spikes got me in distress.
Falling spikes make me so nervous.
I couldn't get a date last night because I couldn't take a step outside.
Call the doctor, call the priest, call the weatherman, the police.
When I walk the streets at night I watch the falling spikes.
All the people that I meet they want to run away.
Plaster my face on every street.
Violation! Violation!
Threw me in a quarantine, tossed in a magazine subscription.
The spikes keep falling in sheets--run for shelter, run for refuge.
Call the doctor, call the priest, call the weatherman, the police.
When I walk the streets at night I watch the falling spikes.
All the people that I meet they want to run away.
When the metal waves collide I want to turn off the tide,
My, oh, my! They put me away.
Why, oh, why? They put me away.
