[Verse 1]
I look into the finance box just to check my status (Status!)
I look into the microscope, I see Golgi Apparatus
[Pre-Chorus]

You can't even see the sea
Golgi, Golgi, Goh-oh-olgi, Golgi
[Verse 2]
They call him Lysosome 'cause he runs so fast

[Pre-Chorus]
Golgi, oh, woe is me
You can't even see the sea
Golgi, Golgi, Goh-oh-olgi, Golgi
[Chorus]
I saw you with a ticket stub in your hand
I saw you with a ticket stub in your hand
I saw you with a ticket stub in your hand
I saw you
Under the light, middle of the night
Couldn't get it wrong
I saw you with a ticket stub in your hand
I saw you with a ticket stub in your hand
I saw you with a ticket stub in your hand
I saw you
Under the light, middle of the night
Couldn't get it wrong, so I had to
[Instrumental Bridge]
[Chorus]
I saw you with a ticket stub in your hand
I saw you with a ticket stub in your hand
I saw you with a ticket stub in your hand
I saw you
Under the light, middle of the night
Couldn't get it wrong, so I had to
[Verse 1]
Look into the finance box just to check my status
I look into the microscope, I see Golgi Apparatus
[Pre-Chorus]
Golgi, oh, woe is me
You can't even see the sea
Golgi, Golgi, Goh-oh-olgi, Golgi
