lyrics

The Whole is Equal to the Sum of its Parts

Fool, what is your name
Should I hang my head in shame
When you say your name is mine
When you say your name is mine….
IIII….. could fill your shoes
If my mouth of useless words won't do
Would you say those words were mine

Leech on ma belly suck on me daddy-oh

Oh - the mess you've made
If one word equaled one hatchet blade
Would you say that blade was mine

Leech on my belly suck on me daddy-oh

Fool, how up is high
If a mountain dropped out of the sky
Would you say its mess was mine

Leech on my belly suck on me daddy-oh
