[Verse 1]
Beetlebum, what you done?
She's a gun, now what you done, beetlebum?
Get nothing done, you beetlebum
Just get numb, now what you've done, beetlebum?
[Chorus]
And when she lets me slip away
She turns me on and all my violence's gone
Nothing is wrong
I just slip away and I am gone
Nothing is wrong, she turns me on
I just slip away and I am gone
[Verse 2]
Beetlebum, because you're young
She's a gun, now what you done, beetlebum?
She'll suck your thumb, she'll make you come
'Cause she's your gun, now what you done, beetlebum?
[Chorus]
And when she lets me slip away
She turns me on and all my violence's gone
Nothing is wrong
I just slip away and I am gone
There's nothing wrong, she turns me on
I just slip away and I am gone
[Outro]
He's on, he's on, he's on it
He's on, he's on, he's on it
He's on, he's on, he's on it
He's on, he's on, he's on it
He's on, he's on, he's on it
He's on, he's on, he's on it
He's on, he's on, he's on it
He's on, he's on, he's on it
Beetlebum, what you done?
She's a gun, now what you done, beetlebum?
Get nothing done, you beetlebum
Just get numb, now what you've done, beetlebum?
[Chorus]
And when she lets me slip away
She turns me on and all my violence's gone
Nothing is wrong
I just slip away and I am gone
Nothing is wrong, she turns me on
I just slip away and I am gone
[Verse 2]
Beetlebum, because you're young
She's a gun, now what you done, beetlebum?
She'll suck your thumb, she'll make you come
'Cause she's your gun, now what you done, beetlebum?
[Chorus]
And when she lets me slip away
She turns me on and all my violence's gone
Nothing is wrong
I just slip away and I am gone
There's nothing wrong, she turns me on
I just slip away and I am gone
[Outro]
He's on, he's on, he's on it
He's on, he's on, he's on it
He's on, he's on, he's on it
He's on, he's on, he's on it
He's on, he's on, he's on it
He's on, he's on, he's on it
He's on, he's on, he's on it
He's on, he's on, he's on it
