Help is a word you say when you're surrounded Or when you fall over the side of a boat Like a red fox being hounded Hung out and cut off with the moat That's why I always write with a poison pen In case I need to go in for the kill I write the same words over and over again Be still, my enemies, be still That night we drove through Tijuana I sang all my songs to you Bowing down to a Madonna You said to your own self be true That's why I always write with a poison pen In case I need to go in for the kill I write the same words over and over again Be still, my enemies, be still Best still, my enemies, be still That's why I always write with a poison pen In case I need to go in for the kill I write the same words over and over again Be still, my enemies, be still
