Less Than Zero

Track B2
 
[Verse 1] Calling Mister Oswald with the swastika tattoo There is a vacancy waiting in the English voodoo Carving 'V' for vandal on the guilty boy's head When he's had enough of that, maybe you'll take him to bed To teach him he's alive 'fore he wishes he was dead [Chorus] Turn up the TV, no one listening will suspect Even your mother won't detect it So your father won't know They think that I've got no respect But everything means less than zero [Pre-Chorus] Hey, red Hey, red [Verse 2] Oswald and his sister are doing it again They've got the finest home movies that you have ever seen They've got a thousand variations: every service with a smile They're going to take a little break, and they'll be back after a while Well, I hear that South America is coming into style [Chorus] Turn up the TV, no one listening will suspect Even your mother won't detect it So your father won't know They think that I've got no respect But everything means less than zero [Pre-Chorus] Hey, red Hey, red [Verse 3] A pistol was still smoking; a man lay on the floor Mister Oswald said he had an understanding with the law He said he heard about a couple living in the USA He said they traded in their baby for a Chevrolet Let's talk about the future now, we've put the past away [Chorus] Turn up the TV, no one listening will suspect Even your mother won't detect it So your father won't know They think that I've got no respect, but Everything means less than zero [Pre-Chorus] Hey, red Hey, red [Outro] Hey, red Hey, red Hey, hey Hey, red Hey, red Hey, red Hey
