"As your disregard for me increases
my distance from you decreases
you're making this pointless for yourself
As your disregard for me increases
my distance from you decreases
you're making this pointless for yourself
I'm going to be where the liquor is,
My head on the counter
I've become a big piece
of your picture
If that matters to you
or if that doesn't matter to you.
I've decided for you.
As your disregard for me increases
my distance from you decreases
you're making this pointless for yourself
As your disregard for me increases
my distance from you decreases
you're making this pointless for yourself
Look out! I nurse more secret gripes
than melancholy, solitary, black-robed officials
As you doze I will sneak into your dreams
like your student loan you've defaulted on.
Just take the path of least resistance: me.
Just permit me, permit me inside
It's armed conflict. It's armed conflict. It's armed conflict.
It's armed conflict. It's armed conflict.
Armed conflict. Armed conflict. Armed conflict.
Armed conflict.
Oh, permit me inside
my distance from you decreases
as per your implied request
my distance from you decreases"

Mel, you're crushing like a strong man crushes tin cans, and by that I mean you're crushing these puzzlers right ka-runch against your FOREHEAD, and by "tin cans" I don't mean aluminum cans.
