lying in my plastic bed

thinkin' how things weren't so cool to me

my baby likes to shoot pool
I like lying naked in my bedroom
tying on that dinosaur[1]
tonight it used to be so cool

now I've got the needle
and I can't bleed but I can't breathe
take it away and I want more and more
one day I'm gonna lose the war

lying in my plastic bed
thinkin' how things weren't so cool to me
my baby likes to shoot pool
I like lying naked in my bedroom

tying on the dinosaur
tonight it used to be so cool

now I've got the needle
and I can't shake
but I can't breathe

take it away and but I want more and more
one day I'm gonna lose the war
