Time Bomb Lyrics - Old 97's

I got a timebomb, in my mind Mom. 

I hear it ticking but I don't know why. 

I call the police, but they don't like me. 

I hear 'em whispering when I walk by. 

I got a landmine in my bloodline. 

I'm not immune to getting blown apart. 

She's like a claymore, that's what she's there for. 

She's waiting 'round here to get blown apart. 

Having her on my brain's like getting hit by a train, 

She's gonna kill me. Oh Celeste, oh Celeste. 

I got a timebemb, in my mind Mom, 

It's gonna go off, but I don't know when. 

I need a doctor to extract her. 

I got a feeling she'd get right back in again 

I got a timebemb, in my mind Mom, 

I got it badly for a stick-legged girl 

She's gonna kill me, and I don't mean softly. 

I got it badly for a stick-legged girl 

Having her on my brain's like getting hit by a train, 

She's gonna kill me. Oh Celeste, oh Celeste, oh Celeste.
