Twisted Lyrics - Stan Ridgway

Chorus: 

You're twisted, that's what you are 

Just like a bee buzzin' in a jar 

Frayed and ragged, spent and strained 

Watchin' that water spin down the drain 

You think that no one sees ya hidin' your dirt 

And no one sees the spots and stains on your shirt 

There's a big empty room there behind your eyes 

When you look in the closet, you'll find a surprise 

What do you do in the middle of the night 

When no one sees you there? 

Does your head start to shrink? do your eyes bug out? 

Do you wonder what's cheatin' and what's playin' fair? 

I bet you've got an awful itch 

A scratch that you can't touch 

You're rollin' and weavin' all over the floor 

You're scrappin' and scrapin' your nails at the door 

Chorus repeat x2 

Now what do you do in the middle of the night 

When no one sees you there? 

Does your head start to shrink? do your eyes bug out? 

Do you wonder what's cheatin' and what's playin' fair? 

I bet you send out for all your food 

I bet you think this that phone call is rude 

Your body's all bent and hairy and warped outta shape 

So take this number and call it, 'cause the zoo needs an ape 

Chorus repeat x2, then repeat the first line x4
