How Do You Slow This Thing Down?
Stephin Merritt
Chorus:
How do you slow this thing down?
How do you make this thing slow down?
We tried to brake,
By saying "Must be some mistake."
Problem unsolved,
We said "Don't make me get involved."
Chorus
We tried to slow,
It down by shrieking "No No NO!"
We tried to halt,
By whimpering "It's not my fault."
Chorus
It's not fair.
We've tried all kinds of prayer.
We've tried science,
It sped up in defience.
Chorus
