I'm sitting in a magic hat

With smoke and mirrors

And tire rubber fires

Watch me disappear

What made it slow you down

Sucking on a ball and chain

Another motherfucker goes down the drain

Sick in the head sick in the mouth

And can't hear a word you say

Not a bit, and I don't give a shit

I got the love to hate

All I need is head on a stake
