Lyrics Oh, Mr Friction - Was (Not Was)

Drink from bottle when I'm home alone
Spank the kids with a fork
Run the appliances high speed all day
Switch stations every five seconds

We are mostly mute with one another
Sounds of unexpected voices shock us
Talk is rarely squandered
Is it a favor or a threat?
Long term plan or, or just a scam?

What'd you say? Say it over
You know your hands give you away
Is it evil or selfish or for criminal gain?
If it takes twenty seconds, can you repeat it again?
What's it mean? Straight out with it
Or don't say it at all

I can take it, call me Judas
I'm a bastard, I'll admit it
I'm Mr. Friction (Oh, Mr. Friction)
I can force you to tell me
Friction accepts no lies
I accept all lies
You can't lie to a lie
I'm the main lie
You can't lie to a lie

Johnny Yuma was a copper, Johnny Yuma
See what you done now?
Now I'm a gangster
Can't speak-a no English
Hopsa hopsalore guana guana guana may
Lomta lee lomta la

Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey

Drink from bottle when I'm home alone
Spank the kids with a fork
Run the appliances high speed all day
Switch stations every five seconds

Don't bring me help
I don't like when you stare

What's wrong?
Water's running everywhere
Hot water, even up my lawn
Don't ask what's wrong
This is intentional
Blang blang blang blang
Who called the cops?
I said I'd be alright
I, I gotta get the, the carrots out
I said I'm coming with dynamite!

Drink from bottle when I'm home alone
