[Verse 1]
Twenty-one, twenty-one
Are you having fun?
I got drunk and bought a gun
Now I'm having fun
[Chorus]
And I feel alright, my chest feels tight
And we stay up, stay up all night
Working out whether to fix or destroy you
[Post-Chorus]
Do you want it, do you want it?
'Cause we can get it, we can get it
I've got a friend and yeah, she sells it
[Chorus]
And I feel my skin and I look so thin
And as I breathe you in
I'm working out whether to fix or destroy you
[Refrain]
Riding in helicopters the government bought
Riding in helicopters the government bought
Riding in helicopters the government bought
[Post-Chorus]
Do you want it, do you want it?
'Cause we can get it, we can get it
I've got a friend and yeah, she sells it
[Chorus]
And I feel okay, I take it day by day
And as I waste away
I'm working out whether to fix or destroy you
[Refrain]
Riding in submarines that the government bought
Riding in submarines that the government bought
Riding in submarines that the government bought
Divorce
[Verse 2]
Well, I got caught by the police
I'd been so bad, done so much bad shit
They sat me down, whacked the back of my head
They asked me for the truth
So I told them lies, all lies
Lies, all lies
Lies, all lies
Lies, all lies
[Instrumental Break]
[Outro]
I got shot straight out of a cannon
Up into the air, all the circus animals
Open their jaws, wave their shiny fangs at me
As I fly down to you
So come on
Get on top
And jump up and down
Forever
Elton John is not the perfect rifle
But you fire him good, you can make a miracle
In her two hands, let the little animal
Crawl into the room
So come on
Get on top
And jump up and down
Forever
