Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Oh yeah

Yeah
Yeah, yeah

Come clean
Fess up
Tell all
Spill guts

I'm the bad
Standard deal
Show the card
Bring it on, break the seal

Ladies and gentleman
Step right up and see the man who bought the truth

Swing the noose again
Pierce the apple skin
A bit more than you need
Oh, you're choking on a bad seed
On a bad seed
Ah, choking

Yeah
Let it on
Load up
Confess
Care so

In the mercy
Cat is out
Drop through the sky
Spit it up, spit it out

And now what you've all been waiting for
We give you he who suffers the truth

Swing the noose again
Pierce the apple skin
Yeah, a bit more than you need
Oh, you're choking on a bad seed
Choking on a bad seed
Yeah

Nothing real, standard deal
Bring it on, break the seal
Nothing much, the cat is out
Spit it up, spit it out
Spit it up, spit it out
Spit it out now

Have mercy

Swing the noose again
Pierce the apple skin
A bit more than you need
Choking on a seed

Swing the noose again
Pierce the apple skin
Yeah, a bit more than you need
Oh, you're choking on a Choking, choking, choking on a bad seed
Yeah

Off the field, standard deal
Bring it on, break the seal
Nothing much, the cat is out
Spit it up, spit it out
Spit it out, spit it out Spit it out now
Yeah

Choking on a bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad seed
