Don't touch that thing, you don't know where it's beennWe brought it home, we don't know what it isnKeep it locked away where no one can find itnBut its on my mind almost all the timenWell when you get right down to the matternIt's been all these years and things aren't getting betternBehind every sunny day, a shadow liesnBehind ever pair of smiling eyesnYou gotta leave, leave, leave, leave, leave it alonenYou gotta walk, walk, walk, walk, walk out the doornYou gotta start, start, start all over againnDon't touch that thing, don't touch that thingnSo I drive to the place where dark birds gathernTo drink from pools of stagnant waternClouds roll up and block the sunnI'm gonna drink through the rain with the radio onnBut all the radio says is blah, blah blahnAnd the morning zoo goes ha, ha, hanI shake my head and go ya, ya, yanDrive home and sitck my head in the ovennBut the gas is turned off, so I watch tvnYou say - all you ever do is watch tvnEyes glaze over as darkness growsnDon't touch that thing, don't touch that thingnAnd I'm sorry, I'm so sorry now
