REAL BAD SITUATION BREWING INSIDE HIS BRAIN LOST HIS MONEY IN VEGAS ON AN ACE OF SPADES HELL’S BELLS WHAT THE HELL HAS GONE WRONG? LOST IN A LAND WHERE THE SUN IS MUCH TOO STRONG IT AINT EASY TO TAKE IT EASY WHEN YOU’RE GOING INSANE. JUMPED A TRAIN TO CLOVIS BEGAN TO WHISPER AND CRY FIGHT BETWEEN A DEMON BROKE OUT IN FRONT OF HIS EYES HELL’S BELLS WHAT THE HELL HAS GONE WRONG? LOST IN A LAND WHERE THE SUN IS MUCH TOO STRONG IT AIN’T EASY TO TAKE IT EASY WHEN YOU’RE GOING INSANE HE TOOK HIS SUNBURNED OLD HAND BEGAN TO RUB HIS HARD OLD HEAD. WHAT’S WRONG WITH YOURSELF? A BULLET THEN DEAD. HELL’S BELLS WHAT THE HELL HAS GONE WRONG? LOST IN A LAND WHERE THE SUN IS MUCH TOO STRONG IT AIN’T EASY TO TAKE IT EASY WHEN YOU’RE GOING INSANE IT AIN’T EASY TO TAKE IT EASY (X2) WHEN YOU’RE GOING INSANE
