I'll tell you something straight
I say it not in hate
Or anger to your face (although you're here)
You'll think it isn't fair
But you need to be aware
Of something that may just get in the way
Refrain:
To the wrong place you've come
If you want to find some fun
If you want to be transported to the sky
If you want to be diverted
And not be disconcerted
This is the wrong place for your head, my friend
There's no hard feelings meant
It isn't heaven-sent
The message that you need to understand
Please do not be offended
There's no offence intended
But if you can't take the heat you need to run
Refrain
I like to play with words
Which to you may seem absurd
And you're so sane and trapped inside your head
That if you listen to me
It might just drive you crazy
And I wouldn't want your madness on my hands
Refrain
I guess you might have heard
I just don't mince my words
Or wear kid gloves to touch your comfort zone
If you don't get my drift
And don't receive my gift
You've only got your own fool self to blame
Refrain
So let's just get this clear
With no climate of fear
You need to ask yourself the reason why
You've come to listen to me
And look at me (right through me)
Without receiving what I have to say
Refrain
Why can't you take the cue
And read my point of view
You always think you know what's going down
You just can't take the hint
Because your heart's like flint
You're just in the wrong place at the wrong time
Refrain
Please don't think I'm a bore
But over there's the door
If I were you I'd walk right through it now
And keep on walking straight
For lemmings it's too late
To change your mind and choose to live instead
Refrain
