[rev. May 31, 2018]

I got so excited when you said you had the key
I thought it might unlock this complex knot
That's got to you and me
If it hadn't been so goddamned rusty
And the teeth hadn't a been so broke
If you hadn't run away with the Sugar Plum Fairy
Then you know there might have been some hope

Well if you're gonna park your car in my private thoughts
Then you'd better know how to drive
Because sifting through all of this grit and dirt
Might just lead you to giving up trying
If you think there is a goldmine hidden and lost
Just waitin' for discovery
Then you'd better be attentive to the shining jewel
Hereby known as me

Jagged peaks
The junkyard heaps
Yeah the hill's too steep

Hmmm you got me surrounded
Girl you got me surrounded
Yeah you got me surrounded

You can throw around poetry like a dog has fleas
Until your heart breaks down
But all of your intelligence is emotionally motivated
And I'm afraid that you're emotionally drowned
Black black heart attack never ever ever going to ever come back
To somebody as smart as you
But if you ever loved me as much as I want
I'd have to find someone new

Jagged peaks
Yeah junkyard heaps
And the hills are too steep

Oh you got me surrounded
Oh you got me surrounded
Yeah you got me surrounded
Girl you got me surrounded
Yeah you got me surrounded
Yeah girl you got me surrounded
Yeah girl you got me surrounded
Yeah you got you got me surrounded
Yeah
Oh you g-got me surrounded
Oh yeah yeah you got me surrounded
Coming at me from all sides
