[Verse 1]
So what brings you around here
I've been looking through my schedule, I don't see your name at all
And it's a funny kind of freedom
That grips you by the throat and never, ever lets you go
I know you probably just came around to talk
And that's nice and all
But I can see that clockwork mind of yours ticking along
And I know where this is leading
And I know that I will follow you

[Verse 2]
Good god, I've had adventures
You won't believe the wonders of this world I have seen
I grabbed this city by the neck and I knocked it to the ground
I took its wallet
I kicked in its teeth
And when I'd sucked all of the goodness from its heart
I left it by the roadside
I wiped my mouth and ran into the dark
What I'm trying to tell you
Is it's not like I've just been sitting here
Waiting for your call
No, no way
No, no way
No, no, no, no, no way
No, no, no, no, no way
No, no, no, no, no way
