I woke up to a message of love
Chokin' up on the smoke from above
I'm obsessed with the poison and us
What a mess? 'Cause there's no one to trust

Uh huh, come on honey
Uh huh, count your money
Uh huh, what's so funny?
There's a riot livin' inside of us

I got paranoia, baby
And it's so hysterical
Crackin' up under the pressure
Lookin' for a miracle

Ah, come on honey
Lyin' in a bed of blood and money
Ah, what's so funny?
We are rivals in the riot inside us
Uh huh, yeah

I'm impressed with the presence of none
I'm possessed from the heat of the sun
Hurry up 'cause I'm makin' a fuss
Fingers up 'cause there's no one to trust

Uh huh, come on honey
Uh huh, count your money
Uh huh, what's so funny?
There's a riot livin' inside of us

I got paranoia, baby
And it's so hysterical
Crackin' up under the pressure
Lookin' for a miracle

Ah, come on honey
Lyin' in a bed of blood and money
Ah, come on honey
Lyin' in a bed of blood and money
Ah, what's so funny?
We are rivals in the riot
We are rivals in the riot
We are rivals in the riot inside us
Uh huh, yeah!
