Sniffle this, sniff on this
My skin up pin up, oh yeah
Monday to Friday
Nobody’s seen ya, amphetamine-ah
Oh, if I see you, would you stop and say hello?
Oh, if I kiss you, would you run straight up my nose?
Oh, Skeletina, say hello, ooh
We’ll take you all on again
We’ll take you all on again
We’ll take you all on again
We’ll take you all on
My all-consuming, self-inducing…
Snivel this, put on this
My skin up pin up, oh yeah
Pick up a lady, tin foil in waiting
Stops me from aching
Oh, if I see you, would you stop and say hello?
Oh, if I kiss you, would you run straight up my nose?
Oh, Skeletina, say hello-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo
We’ll take you all on again
We’ll take you all on again
We’ll take you all on again
We’ll take you all on
My all-consuming, self-inducing…
He’s my only passion, oh yeah
He’s my only passion, oh yeah
We’ll take you all on again
We’ll take you all on again
We’ll take you all on again
We’ll take you all on, yeah
