Lyric

Acid tooth

It's got nothing to do with you

But if you wanna watch me chew

My teeth are cutting you out

Stomachache well it must be in your head

It must be something that you did

Food just doesn't seem to work out

Am I rotting out?

Daddy says I got my mama's mouth

I'm all about

A forked tongue and a dirty house

Mom has said

Yes this happened to me long ago

And you've got to say I'm hurting [Incomprehensible

No one would believe me when I said

Close my mouth

Was I born to accommodate

I'm so good at playing dead

Words just don't seem to come out

Am I rotting out?

Daddy says I got my mama's mouth

I'm all about

A forked tongue and a dirty house

Am I rotting out?

Daddy says I got my mama's mouth

I'm all about

A forked tongue and a dirty house

Should I eat something sweet instead

Wash away all those things we said

1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8

How many doctors will it take before I disintegrate?

It's got nothing to do with you

But if you wanna watch me chew

My teeth are cutting you out

Stomach ache well it must be in your head

It must be something that you did

Food just doesn't seem to work out

Am I rotting out?

Daddy says I got my mama's mouth

I'm all about

A forked tongue and a dirty house

Am I rotting out?

Daddy says I got my mama's mouth

I'm all about

A forked tongue and a dirty house

Am I rotting out?

Am I rotting, am I rotting, am I rotting out?
