Habitual Inmate

When I wake I wash my hands, I wash my face

I do it all over again

In the morning I take my pills, I wash my hands

And I panic and do it again



You know I'm a systematic victim

I'm a systematic victim

Uh-huh



In the afternoon I leave my house, I check the door

And I close it and close it again

All I think about is parasites, bacteria and germs

Diseases galore



You know I'm a systematic victim

I'm a systematic victim

Uh-huh



I can't stand still

I can't sit down

I can't stop my world from going 'round

Repetition, reiteration

Periodic rinse and repeat



Before slumber, is the gas off? Is the door locked?

I check it and I check it again

Wash my hands, I brush my teeth, I wash my face

I think I'll do it again



You know I'm a systematic victim

I'm a systematic victim

Uh-huh



I can't stand still

I can't sit down

I can't stop my world from going 'round

Repetition, reiteration

Periodic rinse and repeat



I can't stand still

I can't sit down

I can't stop my world from going 'round

Repetition, reiteration

Periodic rinse and repeat



I can't stand still

I can't sit down

I can't stop my world from going 'round

Repetition, reiteration

Periodic rinse and repeat
