Lyrics[]

Sister, visit us while you still can,

Sister, don't you forget my number, on the door.

You've got something and it's so good to see,

Something wonderful that I could not be.

Everybody hanging on for their lives,

But you can't help them 'cos you don't have the time.


I know, everyone goes any damn place they like.

I hope this goes over well, on the toxic radio. Yeah.


You get taken all the time for a fool.

I don't know why.

You're so gullible but I don't mind.

That's not the problem.

And I don't need anyone with me right now.

Monday, Tuesday is my weekend.

You get taken for a fool all the time.

I don't know why.


I can't let you do those things when it means,

It's so early I don't want to wake up.

I wish I left you 'cos we never grew up.

Mama, it feels like just yesterday.

Mama, don't you forget my number

I don't want to be the one at the door.


I know, everyone goes any damn place they choose.

And I hope everyone well on the toxic radio.

A tourist, in the ghetto, not afraid of anything.

Except death, or anything else, that could maybe hurt the most. Yeah.


You get taken all the time for a fool.

I don't know why.

You're so gullible but I don't mind.

That's not the problem.

And I don't need anyone with me right now.

Monday, Tuesday is my weekend.

You get taken all the time for a fool.

I don't know why.

You get taken all the time for a fool.

I don't know why.

I don't know why.
