lyrics

SAD TWISTED TIES

Poppy's got a tick inside her head
Her mamma always told her it was make believe
Most times though she'd pray that she was dead
But I can't recall why she feels this way
Some people never come clean

THESE SAD TWISTED TIES
IN THE SHED A DEMON COMES TO OUR DEFENSE
THESE SAD TWISTED VIBES
TAKE ON NEW MEANING WHEN THE ATMOSPHERE GETS DENSE

Tuesday was a solitary hit
(Only one customer per hamburger.)
Poppy tried to blame us for the accident
Poor kid, never stood a chance of this
'Cause we were together that innocent night
Taking a knife to her wrists

THESE SAD TWISTED TIES
IN THE SHED A DEMON COMES TO OUR DEFENSE
THESE SAD TWISTED VIBES
TAKE ON NEW MEANING WHEN THE ATMOSPHERE GETS DENSE

There must be somethin' in the water
There must be somethin' in the air
I think there's somethin' in the water
Could it be that sump over there?

Good old dear poppy and her dad
(Good ole' Dad Ahem..)
Officer Matesty used to tie us up
Forcing us to eat the bugs he had
(Now eat these…)
So we took a vow and a spike to his head
We won't hear him snoring this fall

OH, THESE SAD TWISTED TIES
IN THE SHED A DEMON COMES TO OUR DEFENSE
THESE SAD TWISTED VIBES
TAKE ON NEW MEANING WHEN THE ATMOSPHERE GETS DENSE
THESE SAD TWISTED TIES
IN THE SHED A DEMON COMES TO OUR DEFENSE
THESE SAD TWISTED VIBES
WHEN THE ATMOSPHERE GETS DENSE
