Lyrics Butcher Babies – They’re Coming To Take Me Away
Text:
They’re coming to take me away, ha
They’re coming to take me away
They’re coming to take me away, ha
They’re coming to take me away
They’re coming to take me away
They’re coming to take me away, ha
They’re coming to take me away
Remember when you ran away
And I got on my knees
And begged you not to leave
Because I’d go berserk?
Well, you left me anyhow
The days got worse and worse
And now you see I’ve gone
Completely out of my mind
They’re coming to take me away ha ha
They’re coming to take me away
They’re coming to take me away ha ha
They’re coming to take me away
They’re coming to take me away
They’re coming to take me away
They’re coming to take me away
They’re coming to take me
They’re coming to take me
They’re coming to take me away
They’re coming to take me away
They’re coming to take me away
They’re coming
They’re coming
They’re coming
They’re coming to take me away
They’re coming to take me away
You thought it was a joke
And so you laughed
You laughed when I had said
That losing you would make me flip my lid, right?
You know you laughed
I heard you laugh
You laughed, you laughed and laughed and then you left
But now you know I’m utterly mad
They’re coming to take me away ha ha
They’re coming to take me away
They’re coming to take me away ha ha
They’re coming to take me away
They’re coming to take me away
They’re coming to take me away
They’re coming to take me away
They’re coming to take me
They’re coming to take me
They’re coming to take me away
They’re coming to take me away
They’re coming to take me away
They’re coming
They’re coming
They’re coming
They’re coming
They’re coming to take me away
They’re coming to take me away
Your home the one the bank foreclosed
You cried monogamy
To the happy home with trees and flowers and chirping birds
I cooked your food
I cleaned your house
And this is how you paid me back
To the funny farm
Where life is beautiful all the time
And I’ll be happy
Well you just wait they’ll find you yet, and when they do they’ll put you in the ASPCA you fucking mutt
To the happy home
They sit and smile and twiddle their thumbs and toes
To the loony bin with all you need prescription drugs
Like Thorazine, and lithium
Electric shock and insulin
To the fucking funny farm
They’re coming to take me away
They’re coming to take me
They’re coming to take me
They’re coming to take me away
They’re coming to take me away
They’re coming to take me away
They’re coming
They’re coming
They’re coming
They’re coming
They’re coming to take me away
They’re coming to take me away
