| No more pretending now, the albatross is dying in its nest
|
| The company is crippling me
|
| The worst trying to ruin the best, the best
|
| Their promotion’s so lame
|
| They could never ever take it to the real ball game
|
| Maybe they think I’m a pet
|
| Well I’ve got all the diseases
|
| I’m breaking out in sweat, you bet, because
|
| I got, Mercury poisoning
|
| It’s fatal and it don’t get better
|
| I got, Mercury poisoning
|
| The best kept secret in the west
|
| The boys and me are getting real well known around town
|
| But every time we try to spread the action
|
| Someone always brings it down, down
|
| I ate the orange and I don’t feel well
|
| For them it’s inconvenience for me it’s hell
|
| The geriatric staff think we’re freaks
|
| They couldn’t sell kebabs to the Greeks, the geeks
|
| Inaction speaks, and
|
| I got, Mercury poisoning
|
| It’s fatal and it don’t get better
|
| I got, Mercury poisoning
|
| The best kept secret in the west
|
| Is this a Russian conspiracy, no it’s just idiocy
|
| Is this a Chinese burn
|
| I gotta a dinosaur for a representative
|
| It’s got a small brain and refuses to learn
|
| Their promotion’s so lame
|
| They could never ever take it to the real ball game
|
| Listen I ain’t a pet
|
| I ain’t a token hipster, in your monopoly set
|
| You bet because
|
| I got, Mercury poisoning
|
| It’s fatal and it don’t get better
|
| I got, Mercury poisoning
|
| The best kept secret in the west
|
| He’s got, Mercury poisoning
|
| It’s fatal and it don’t get better
|
| He’s got, Mercury poisoning
|
| The best kept secret in the west
|
| Yeah the best kept secret in the west The best kept secret in the west |
