lyrics

I want to drive all of the snakes off the island
Exactly like Saint Patrick did
I want to take a little more than is mine, then prison
Napoleon, break out and do it again
I want all of my friends to be birds, yeah
Exactly like Saint Francis'
I want to take myself as a drug
Overdose, go down in flames just like Nancy and Sid

While you're rolling holy I'm sweating blood
And bite through a kiss
Gotta fill them holes in with half-dead bodies
We still get our kicks

I want to make a god prove he exists
Exactly like Saint Thomas could
And then get gunned down by someone who loved me
The same way Saint John Lennon was
Now I've driven all the snakes off the island
Exactly like Saint Patrick did
I want to lose myself in the limelight, die early
Lose a child just like Marilyn

While you're rolling holy I'm sweating blood
And bite through a kiss
Gotta fill them holes in with half-dead bodies
We still get our kicks

Why would I want to be you?
All of your heroes are dead
I want, I want, I want, I wanted
I never wanted to be you
