Something I always wanted To take what you give A hard metal hammered to a shape that you fit When I beat up Miss Fortune, told her to get out I sold the last things on eBay I was without doubt caught between that hard-place in over my head, Chewing off something in a trap Quicksand in my bed Necessary evil Two arms, two legs Our presents ain't counted Walking on eggs Necessary evil Now don't disappear Got a whiplash for memory I'm staying here When love takes you prisoner there is no escape But the secret ingredient is a knife in the cake Some crime of wisdom put the light in my eyes oh You could find me baby under the bridge of sighs And I'm caught between that hard place in over my head Chewing of something in the trap quicksand in my bed oh Necessary evil nerves on a edge Necessary evil powder in a cake Necessary evil you come you go Necessary evil oh yes oh no Sex in a can love in a jar Airtight container just like a heart Kept in a vacuum born in a barn Your artificial climate keeping you warm A germ free bubble no bugs allowed Listen for the hum and cryin' out loud Crying Crying Oh Necessary evil two arms two legs All present all counted walking on eggs Necessary evil you come and you go Necessary evil oh yes oh no Necessary evil oh yes oh no Necessary evil oh yes oh no
