lyrics

I used to see so very little of it
And dare I say I was a happy man
Then you took me right to the middle of it
You left me drowning down in Disneyland
You plugged me into your TV
I saw the world it sawed through me
I don't believe it when you say
I'm better off this way
I don't want to think of all the damage done
It's any wonder I can talk to anyone
I can only think of one thing left to do
Let me tell you now, I'm gonna get Bob Thompson
I'm coming after you
St. Elsewhere scenes, your magic ain't what it seems
Your dirty dreams of Mary Tyler Moore
Hijacked my brain just like a terrorist train
And I'm sending John McClane to settle the score
I think you'll understand my friend
That's just the way it's got to end
Don't you believe in Bad vs. Good?
This is Hollywood!
Your ever-after tales and your nursery rhymes
Well they sounded good until they scorched me blind
You taught my eyes to see but why'd you do it to me?
I'm gonna get Bob Thompson you just wait and see
I met the Man in Amsterdam
He cold-cocked me black and tan
My world is gone like Alderaan
It's blown to pieces kingdom come
My rebel base in outer space
Can't wait to meet you face to face
Your show and tell heartbreak hotel
It taught me well...
I can barely move it's like I'm in a dream
I turn around and you're running away from me
I've done and think it through, I know what I gotta do
I'm gonna get Bob Thompson I'm coming after you
You better watch your back I'm on an ambush attack
I'm gonna get Bob Thompson I'm gonna get you back.
