Amputations

Yes, we seem nutty to you
 And if we seem like an oddball to you
 Just remember one thing
 The mighty oak tree was once a nut just like me
 If it was just how you wanted
 You'd be glued to his bones and his brainstem
 Changing your image and attitudes
 Won't bring him back into your bedroom
 Amputating
 As he's waiting
 Amputating
 He's unresponsive 'cause you're irresponsible
 ♪
 Little swinger, your bottle is thinking too much
 'Cause you're aiming to please way off target
 And I'll tell you what you must already know
 Of amputating that too slow
 Amputating
 As he's waiting
 Amputating
 He's unresponsive 'cause you're irresponsible
 Amputating
 As he's waiting

 Amputating

 I pray to God, one day, He will grant me the power
 To reach out and hold my hand over your head
 And give you instant belief, 'cause you don't have instant belief
 You've been hooked, you've been crooked
 You've been lied to so many times, that you're suspicious-minded
 And when the right thing comes along, you don't believe it
 When I'm entering, knocking at the front door
 You're at the back door looking for four-leaf clovers
 And when you find it, you think somebody planted it there to fool you
 "What's the angle?"
 You look for an excuse
 In this modern day and age, we have instant coffee and instant tea
 Instant disbelief, that's the reason we will never become anything
 It is because we will never believe in ourselves
 We will always listen to the mass majority
 If everybody's making fun of you and criticizing you
 Then you know you're on the right track
 'Cause most people ain't got it
