lyrics

She wasn’t thinking we were Vikings
She just had thought that we liked fur
Gave us the keys to her apartment
And we set it on fire, watched it burn
She wasn’t keen on pressing charges
Instead she took us all to church
Sat us up front to take communion
But we couldn’t pronounce all of the words

We’ll watch your city burn
You seem surprised, I guess you’ll never learn

She took the proceeds from insurance
Bought a new spot along the beach
Said we could work there as the doormen
If we stayed out of trouble for a week
So we were on our best behavior
We combed our hair and brushed out teeth
Then brought our friends in on the longboats
And they left there with all her jewelry

I am not a charlatan
I only tell the truth
But who you think you are to me
Is not who I am to you
See, I will take with my two hands
Whatever’s in their reach
You’ll acquiesce to my demands
Or kindly rest in peace
