The Worm

We're sitting on the wall
Expecting nobody to call
Yeah and there ain't no telephone
Yeah and we know we're all alone

Oh look around behind your back
Here comes the worm, I guess you'll never learn
I'm a peaceful man at the best of times, peaceful man
The gossip of my baby drives me out of my mind, out of my mind
When I'm finished with the worm, they're sure to lock me up inside

So my baby has to marry
Well that's the burden that I carry
So, worm, you'd better go
Cos I don't want the whole world to know

Oh look around behind your back
Here comes the worm, I guess you'll never learn
You know, I'm a peaceful man but I'm misleading my cool
Peaceful man, that's what I am
And while I haven't got it, I'm gonna beat you like a mule
When I'm finished with the worm, they're sure to lock me up inside
