lyrics

When he said he wanted to be a salmon
Pink and red and able to change sex
I later made a joke to my buddies
But I knew exactly what he meant

Don’t take me back, back to your old days
They were not good and they were not golden

Mama mia, here we go again
One more reminder of what lives beneath
Tentacles slapping wet up on the floorboards
There’s a knock at the door, no you can’t come in

2002, standing on my bed frame
Arms crossed like a vampire, I fell
Commanding the gay ghost from my body
I attempted an exorcism on myself

Don’t take me back, back to your old days
They were not good and they were not golden
